I'll Turn To Stone

(album: Reach Out - 1967)

If you take your love from me,
I'll turn to stone, turn to stone.
If your love I couldn't call my own,
I'll turn to stone, turn to stone.

I need your love in every way.
Your love I cling to
When things slip away.
Without your love
I'll be lost and alone.
No reason for living
All purpose would be gone.
Without you there
For my eyes to behold
My life would be empty
My heart would grow cold.

If you take your love from me,
I'll turn to stone, turn to stone.
If your love I couldn't call my own,
I'll turn to stone, turn to stone.

When I think of love,
I think of me and you.
When I think of happiness,
I think of us too.
You're my yesterdays
And all my tomorrows,
The air I breathe
Everything I need.
If from my life
You were ever gone,
I'd fall to pieces
You I depend on.

If you take your love from me,
I'll turn to stone, turn to stone.
If your love I couldn't call my own,
I'll turn to stone, turn to stone.

Darling without you
I'll go on searching
With a lonely heart
That won't stop hurting.
Sorrow would be written
On my face
All my tears
Would leave its trace.
I would be like a statue in a park
Cold and alone,
A man without a heart.

If you take your love from me,
I'll turn to stone, turn to stone.
If your love I couldn't call my own,
I'll turn to stone, turn to stone.

Turn to stone, turn to stone
Just turn to stone, I'll turn to stone.
If your love I couldn't call my own.
I'll turn to stone, just turn to stone,
I'll turn to stone, turn to stone...
