Icy Blue Heart — текст песни (John Hiatt)

She came onto him like a slow movin cold front

His beer was warmer than the look in her eyes

She sat on a stool, he said, "what do you want? "

She said, "give me a love that dont freeze up inside."



He said, "i have melted some hearts in my time dear

But to sit next to you, lord, I shiver and shake

And if I knew love, well, I dont think Id be here

Askin myself if Ive got what it takes."



Chorus:

To melt your icy blue heart

Should I start?

To turn whats been frozen for years

Into a river of tears



"these days we all play cool, calm and collected

Why, our lips could turn blue just shooting the breeze"

But under the frost, well, he thought he detected

A warm blush of red and a touch of her knee



He said, "girl, youre a beauty like Ive never witnessed

And Ive seen the northern lights dance in the air

But Ive felt the cold that can follow the first kiss

And theres not enough heat in the fires burning there."



Chorus
