Heart On Ice 歌词

As I sit in the all night diner You return to your easy chair You awake to your work and your woman And I'll dream that it's me lying there You can look in my eyes but you'll never know There's an ache inside that I never show A defensive device Meant to keep my heart on ice I keep my heart on ice I chill my holy soul I shield my fragile eggshell love From attack during the groundswell I'll act the part so well I'll play my finest role But the furies take their toll and their price Is to keep my heart on ice As I sit in the all night diner You leaned back in your nightclub seat I went out with two friends and a stranger With a laugh and a pang of defeat But I looked in your eyes as I turned to go Was there something there that you couldn't show A defensive device Meant to keep your heart of ice You keep your heart on ice you chill your holy soul You shield your fragile eggshell love From attack during the groundswell You act the part so well you'll play your finest role But the furies take their toll and their price Is to keep my heart on ice As I sit in the all night diner I was thinking of you at the bar And the smiles and the jests and the whispers As I watched once again from afar But I looked in your eyes and I never knew Did I read you wrong did I misconstrue The defensive device I will keep my heart on ice I keep my heart on ice I chill my holy soul I shield my fragile eggshell love From attack during the groundswell I'll act the part so well I'll play my finest role But the furies take their toll and their price Is to keep my heart on ice
