Dwight Yoakam - Heart Of Stone Lyrics






[Chorus:]
This heart of stone sure is missing you
Sure is wishing you were back where love belongs
This heart of stone has not forgotten you
But broke while trying to pretend that it was strong

Memories have made its will grow tired and weak
Silently it turned from being bold to meek
'Til finally it gave into a sad defeat
Aching more and more with every fragile beat

[Chorus:]
This heart of stone (heart of stone, heart of stone)
sure is missing you (heart of stone, heart of stone)
Sure is wishing you (wishing you)
were back where love belongs
This heart of stone (heart of stone, heart of stone)
has not forgotten you (heart of stone, heart of stone)
But broke while trying to (trying to)
pretend that it was strong

Loneliness has slowly stripped it of its pride
Leaving just an empty well here behind
Without a hope of any way it could survive
Stranded there alone and simply left to die

[Chorus:]
This heart of stone (heart of stone, heart of stone)
sure is missing you (heart of stone, heart of stone)
Sure is wishing you (wishing you)
were back where love belongs
This heart of stone (heart of stone, heart of stone)
has not forgotten you (heart of stone, heart of stone)
But broke while trying to (trying to)
pretend that it was strong

But broke while trying to pretend that it was strong

    Best straight to the point lyrics I have ever heard. It really takes a lot of an artist to bare their soul.....he does....and somehow knows he is not the only one who has suffered....he must know that his songs save the lost...... Bless him.

  38. d.... h....

    Dwight has created little snip-its of worlds I can escape to and immerse myself into a different time and place...hell a different me. A treasure to the universe. It dont get any better than Dwight and the art he has created.

  63. J.... W....

    Yes Dwight Is Fantastic!

  64. K.... G....

    This song really speaks to my heart. Dwight sings so sweetly!

  65. T.... ....

    Most probably recognize Harry Dean Stanton from the movie, "Alien" (1979). Can only guess why he appears in Dwight Yoakam's video. Dwight was more than likely a big fan of his and Stanton was a fan of Dwight's. Good song! I'm not big on song videos, but there are several put to Dwight Yoakam's music that I enjoy. This is one of them, and it takes me back in memory.

    T.... ....

    Stanton has been in so MANY movies/TV! He was one of those talents who were very under-recognized and glossed-over by FANS: b/c the industry knew what a treasure he was! "Star of the series"- ? No. Would your series end it its run w/o Harry appearing? Not likely! He was a talent!

    T.... ....

    Mr.Stanton is Scotty Moore. Scotty as rock guys know is Elvis Presley's original, and often, guitarist. MR. Stanton is also known as guitarist Keith Richards. Dwight Yoakum is Elvis Presley's half-brother. His father is Pierre Eliot Trudeau. Justin Trudeau also acts under the name Mathew Maconaghey.

    T.... ....

    ,never thought of it that way... with Harry Stanton and all. Good eye and I would say true story there somewheres...

    T.... ....

    , I kind of just figured they met on a movie set somewheres but I'm guessing you are probably correct. I also enjoy this song. And I shall keep On Keepin On

  66. m.... ....

    Another little movie, another little story by Dwight.  Nothing can take away from his voice and the emotions his songs arouse.  One of the greatest country singers and writers ever!

    m.... ....

    Country music the way it should sound.

  67. D.... M....

    Odd videos.... but terrific music. Love this guys music, especially this one.

  68. R.... C....

    Pure sex appeal

  69. B.... E....

    Give me a truck, put me on route 66 with some Dwight, Vince dueting with Patty L, Willie, George rip, what a trip I'd have !!!!

  70. T.... T....

    Anyone know what song that is in the video, I know one is 'near you', but whats the rockier one?

    T.... T....

    There are several songs played .. all of them from Dwight's album "Gone". The last song on that album is Heart of Stone.

    T.... T....

    @Lucy Moser Don't mean to sound rude, but that comment made me feel like you think I'm stupid or something. 

    T.... T....

    @TwangyDan TheGuitarMan I'm sorry, Dan. My reply was not meant like that at all. I was only mentioning that they play bits and pieces of almost every song on the album, so I didn't know which one you referred to. I thought it was neat the way the video played pieces of the album songs, and then ended with the last song on the album. Sorry again. Never meant to offend.

    T.... T....

    @Lucy Moser It's all good, reading back, you weren't in the wrong, my bad, appreciate how polite you were, I know the song now anyway. 

  71. K.... M....

    I skated in this music vid. I'm in the opening rink shot wearing plaid Catholic schoolgirl outfit. 

    K.... M....

    Karyl Miller waste of time. you can't see a thing. .

    K.... M....

    Just played fine for me.

    K.... M....

    Did you get to meet Dwight?

  72. D.... E....

    This heart of stone steals through the night, a lone wolf, hungry, lonely, and thissimple song is where Love belongs.d

  73. S.... L....

    Dwight's songs capture the essence of a lot of pure country. I think I hear Patsy Cline in there. 

  74. R.... O....

    Dwight this song is so meaningful ! I love it !

    R.... O....

    One of my fav's! Oh man this is funny? When Ken said? Hey remember that video Dwight did  where they are roller skating ?? Ken said lets go? That's when we went & I fell & broke my arms!! Love the Song & Video :o)

  75. f.... ....

    Very pure and sad...straight to the heart.

  76. f.... ....

    Very pure and sad...straight to the heart.

  77. V.... R....

    I love this song & video!!! Dwight rocks :o)

  78. R.... ....

    Now we know he can sing+write Countrypolitan!

  79. T.... ....

    Dwight is perhaps one of the purest country performers with that twang and old country beat you find in most of his music. But when he takes his hat off, he's just an ordinary guy.

  80. g.... b....

    som vanlig meget bra.

  81. S.... ....

    This heart of stone just disintegrated into a pile of sand. Beautiful song.

  82. d.... a....

    i was hoping for a stones cover

  83. d.... ....

    Harry Dean Stanton, the character actor driving the car and skating, is a fine musician in his own right. Probably a buddy of Dwight...

  84. M.... B....

    That car sounds beautiful starting up at the beginning of this video ;)

  85. f.... ....

    isn't this the video for "you'll be sorry you asked"?

  86. c.... ....

    He's got the prettiest mouth

  87. L.... M....

    Several of Dwight's songs play when they show clips in the car and at the rink before Lady's Choice. Which one do you mean?

  88. L.... M....

    I would love to see the whole video of Dwight singing this song while playing those drums. He does it with such heart .. those are my favorite parts of this video <3

  89. s.... ....

    it's on Dwight's album "Gone", if you're looking for it

  90. s.... ....

    which came first? this or Sorry You Asked? they have the same video intro...

  91. T.... ....

    "Never Hold You"

  92. E.... C....

    What's the song playing with the older dude in the car?

    E.... C....

    Eric Carter. superstitous

  93. K.... E....

    I loved him in CRANK and CRANK 2

  94. A.... W....

    a hart of stone, memoris s, an I still missing you, stupid,but not wrong s. S? ya. fan. I lowe him, der I do.

  95. L.... M....

    One of those haunting sad songs that you just have to listen to because of the purity and raw emotion radiating from Dwight's voice. The theme is sad, but watching him sing is captivating. Also, one of only 2 times I've seen Dwight play drums.
