lyrics

Heart Like a Brick

They say you always drove a hard bargain
Drove me half way to the brink and a quarter way back again
You know I’m gonna stay if it’s the last thing I do,
But it’s hard as a floor to keep on loving you,

It’s hard to imagine that the thunder will pass,
Hard as a mirror and heavy as a shot glass.
It’s harsh enough to cast a glare on all that I knew,
And hard enough to bite a diamond clear in two,

CH: Heart like a brick, like a brick through my window,
Heart like a brick, like a brick.

It’s hard to believe in that pinprick of light
At the end of the tunnel we’ve been locked in all night,
It’s heavy as a coat of arms, high as a cross,
Yeah, it’s a hard, hard rain and then a cold, hard frost. (2x)

(But the ice on the lake has an unearthly glow, Surrounded by waves of glowing snow.)
