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 
That I never let you see - 
The tender side of me 

I tried to be a mountain 
Solid and strong 
All it took was your leavin' 
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 
And 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 Cheriko 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
