melt my heart to stone - adele

right under my feet is air made of bricks

that pulls me down and turns me weak for you

i find myself repeating like a broken tune

and i'm forever excusing your intentions

then i give in to my pretendings

which forgive you each time

without me knowing,

they melt my heart to stone

[Chorus:]

and i hear your words that i made up

you say my name like there could be an us

i best tidy up my head i'm the only one 

in love, i'm the only one in love

each and every time i've turned 'round to leave

i feel my heart begin to burst and bleed

so desperately i try to link it with my head

but instead i fall back to my knees

as you tear your way right through me

i forgive you once again

without me knowing, you've burnt my heart to stone

[Chorus]

why do you steal my hand

whenever i'm standing my own ground?

you build me up then leave me there

where i hear your words you made up

i say your name like there should be an us

i best tidy up my head, i'm the only one 

in love, i'm the only one in love
