Lyrics
Don?t Take me for Granite © idris jones 2003
You call me your rock
You say I?m your friend
Prepare for a shock
Cause I can?t pretend
You think that I?m strong
But baby you?re wrong
The time has come for you to see
I?m weaker than a man should be
Cho. Don?t Take Me for Granite, I ain?t so tough inside
Don?t Take Me for Granite, I?m hurtin? and I can?t hide
The way I feel is all so real, and it goes right down to the bone
Don?t Take Me for Granite, I?m not made of stone
It?s chippin? away
and it?s gonna show
You mould me like clay
and don?t even know
The man you could make
This image you could break
I?ve tried to rise above it all
but now I crumble, now I fall
Cho. Don?t Take Me for Granite, I ain?t so tough inside
Don?t Take Me for Granite, I?m hurtin? and I can?t hide
The way I feel is all so real, and it goes right down to the bone
Don?t Take Me for Granite, I?m not made of stone
Bridge: I?ll still be your rock
I?ll still be your friend
But you?re gonna see the way it could be
When we?re alone again
Cho. Don?t Take Me for Granite, I?m gonna hold you tight
Don?t Take Me for Granite, say it?ll be alright
The way I feel is all so real, and it goes right down to the bone
Don?t Take Me for Granite, I?m not made of stone
