emmylou harris - icy blue heart lyrics
(john hiatt)
she came on to him like a slow moving cold front
his beer was warmer than the look in her eye
she sat on the stool and 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 well i don’t think i’d be here
asking myself if i had 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
our lips could turn blue just shooting the breeze
but under the frost he thought he detected
a warm blush of red and the touch of her knee.
he said you’re a beauty like i’ve never witnessed
and i’ve seen the northern lights dance in the air
but i’ve felt the cold that can follow the first kiss
and there’s not enough heat in the fires 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, ah heart…
