From a Lonely, Bitter Stone
Once my heart was made of stone
Cold and hard, it stood alone
But then I met a gentle soul
Whose kindness made my heart whole
I felt a change, deep inside
As walls I'd built began to slide
Love seeped in and warmed my core
And all the hurt I felt before
Slowly faded, like a dream
As hope and joy began to gleam
I saw the world in a new light
And felt my heart take flight
Now, my heart beats with love and grace
And every smile I see, I trace
Back to the moment when I knew
That my heart had changed, and grew
From a lonely, bitter stone
To a warm and caring home
For all the love that I can give
And all the joy that I can live.
