A Man Ain't Made of Stone

I was supposed to be the rock that you could stand on

Stronger than an old oak tree

But all you ever wanted was the one thing I never let you see

The tender side of me

I tried to be a mountain;

Solid and strong

All it took was your leaving to know I was wrong



Chorus:

A man ain't made of stone

A man ain't made of steel

The way I feel right now

I thought I'd never feel

Sometimes all it takes is facing the night alone

And that's when you know a man ain't made of stone



In this world of mine there was no room for weakness

I covered every crack in the wall

But there ain't no way that I can keep this secret

'Cause when you go like Jerico I fall

You thought I wouldn't shatter

Would I even care?

But there's more to what I'm made of

Than this broken heart can bear



Repeat Chorus



Sometimes all it takes is facing the night alone

And that's when you know a man ain't made of stone

That's when you know a man ain't made of stone
