Sinking Stone

Damhnait Doyle

I've been falling hard as a sinking stone
Since you hit me clear to the bone
I prayed with all my might I could forget
Just how sweet your kisses taste

You were straight right from the start
Said you'd only go and break my little heart
Now I'd tell any lie, commit any sin
For you to kill me with your kindness again

Someday I wish I never held you close
We were closer to perfect than most I know
I'm sure there were others but I did my time
You delighted in them when you were rightly mine

You were straight right from the start
Said you'd only go and break my little heart
Now I'd tell any lie, commit any sin
For you to kill me with your kindness again

Now I'm waiting across the street
Got this smell of steel on my hands and
I'm hoping you'll surrender and you'll say
You'll be my man

I don't want to hurt you
But if I, if I have to I'll be able
Without you I am nothing
My cards are on the table
