Lyrics
Looking for a love of my very own
Looking where the sun has never shone
Down to the cemetery all alone
Call you up with a book I stole
During the day the voices say
There's a tomb where we can play
Looking for a love that won't grow old
Found it in this lonely heart of stone
Next full moon we vowed to stay
Skanking in the shadows of our new affair
Run through the pyres with the hand of fate
Carrying a torch for the very late
Love i stronger than the living proof
Figures reaching in an empty room
Lock me up from the inside gate
Etch our names into this heart of
Seal my fate with a love so strong
Run to the echoes of the forest lawn
My love calls out from beyond the pale
Now and forever dancing in the veil
Don't you take this heart of stone from me
Don't you take this heart of stone from me
Don't you take this heart of stone from me
Don't you take this heart of stone from me
