Lyrics

Heart of Steel

Heart of steel, heart of stone

What I feel I don't know

You can turn water into wine

You can make a hell out of this paradise

With your heart of steel

A heart of steel breaks a heart of glass

What I need I'm afraid to ask

The heart of steel

The heart of steel

The heart of steel

You have no heart of gold

You can say what you want to

You can fly high where the angels sing

You can be anything that you want to

You are the gift the eagle brings

You can stay if you want to

You can hide behind your angel smile

You can make it if you want to

The heart of steel refuses you

The heart of steel refuses

The heart of steel refuses you

The heart of steel refuses

The heart of steel refuses

The heart of steel

The heart of steel

The heart of steel

Becomes a heart of stone

The heart of steel

The heart of steel

The heart of steel

The heart of steel

The heart of
