She came on to him
Like a slow moving cold front
His beer was warmer
Than the look in her eye
She sat on a stool
He said, "What do you want?"
She said, "Give me a love
That don't 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
Don't think I'd be here
Asking myself
If I have what it takes
To melt your icy blue heart
Should I start
To turn what's been frozen for years
Into a river of tears?"
These days we all play cool
Calm and collected
Why, our lips could turn blue
Shooting the breeze
But under the frost
Thought he detected
A warm blush of red
And a touch of her knees
He said, "Girl, you've a beauty
Like I've never witnessed
And I've seen the northern lights
Dance in the air
But I've felt the cold
Follow the first kiss
And there's not enough heat
In the fire burning there
To melt your icy blue heart
Should I start
To turn what's been frozen for years
Into a river of tears?
To melt your icy blue heart
Should I start
To turn what's been frozen for years
Into a river of tears?"
