Rick Springfield - (I Wish I Had A) Concrete Heart Lyrics

I wish I had a concrete heart
I wish I had a concrete heart

You say the things you say
And you don't even know just how it hurts
The damage I don't show, the pain you cause
Every time you open up your mouth
With your reckless chemistry
You still make me want to be
In this world, in this life, for you

When I burn, when I freeze
You don't make a sound
But I need to believe
That you won't turn around
And leave, leave another bullet hole in me
You keep tearing me apart
I wish I had a concrete heart
I wish I had a concrete heart
I wish I had a concrete heart
I wish I had a concrete heart

You do the things you do
And you don't even care how I react
You overstep the line and you never take it back
You leave me here in no man's land
Are you just too uncontrolled
And my feelings way too bold
For this world, for this life, for you

When I burn, when I freeze
There's no common ground
'Cause I need to believe
You won't turn around
And leave, leave another bullet hole in me
You keep tearing me apart
I wish I had a concrete heart

You wouldn't be able to shake it
You wouldn't be able to break it
You wouldn't be able to make it so hard to say goodbye
When you can't feel the sting
You don't cry for nothing or no one

I wish I had a concrete heart
I wish I had a concrete heart
I wish I had a concrete heart
But I don't

When I burn, when I freeze
You don't make a sound
But I need to believe
That you won't turn around
And leave, leave another bullet hole in me
You keep tearing me apart
I wish I had a concrete heart
