Lyric Icy Blue Heart

(John Hiatt)

She came on to him like a slow moving cold front
His beer was warmer that the look in her eye
She sat on the stool, and she 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
Askin 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, wee 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
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
