The sun has gone - darkness all over the land
You hide a torch, closed in the palm of your hand
Dreams of love, faded away
The plans you made gone forever
You´ve built a wall, that no one can cross
A man of steel, standing tall

You´ve closed your heart, covered it over with steel
But now the cost, no one can see how you feel
The bridge is burnt, you´re drifting away
Too late, to learn the lesson
And now the wall, that no one can cross
Is your only real possession

Man of steel
So strong that no one can love you
Man of steel
You long for someone to hold you again

The dream has gone - darkness all over the land
You held the cards - but somehow they slipped thru´ your hands
Now you´re lost . drifting away
And love´s a feeling forbidden
The plans you made, were buildings of clay
And now they´re gone forever

Man of steel
So strong that no one can love you
Man of steel
You long for someone to hold you again
