[Verse 1]
You caught my eye right from the start
I couldn’t get you off my mind
You were getting over a broken heart
A victim of cheating and lying
I tried to show you that I was in
Thought that you would come around
I told you I’d be there through thick and thin
I thought that what was going down
You were like a diamond in the ruff and I was chasing fools gold
I thought I found a treasure to last forever and now I can’t let it go

[Chorus]
I been trying for so long I keep on trying baby
There’s no use in hanging on but I hold on hold on
Nothing left for me to hold
When a heart's gone cold

[Verse 2]
You got a wall I can’t get through but I keep on chipping away
Piece by piece I’ll get to you but I can’t make you stay
We were frozen in separate worlds you’re drifting away from me
I was blind for way too long but now I finally see

[Chorus]
I been trying for so long I keep on trying baby
There’s no use in hanging on but I hold on hold on
Nothing left for me to hold
When a heart's gone cold
I been trying for so long I keep on trying baby
There’s no use in hanging on but I hold on hold on
Nothing left for me to hold
When a heart's gone cold
When a heart's gone cold
Hey baby when a heart's gone cold
Hearts gone cold hearts gone cold
When a heart's gone cold
