Emerson Lake & Palmer - Heart On Ice lyrics

Just take my heart put it on ice<br>'cause I don't think I could stand another blow<br>Just one more tumble of the dice<br>Though it's slipping through my hands<br>I can't let go<br><br>And when the hard rain falls<br>Whatever you may say<br>There's no hiding in this jungle<br>You just can't run away<br><br>And I'm sorry when I fell from grace<br>Unable to conceal<br>Only passion is a fool to chase<br>The loneliness I fell<br><br>Just take my heart into the night<br>It no longer needs to see the light of day<br>Heaven knows I cannot fight<br>As the edges of my soul get chipped away<br><br>Walking down this street<br>The gutter runs with tears<br>I would sell my heart<br>To cross the bridge of compromise<br><br>But you cannot walk on broken glass<br>'cause every step you take<br>Is just one cut deeper than the last<br>Just one more heart you break<br><br>Just take my heart put it on ice<br>Your love is a fire, a burning hurricane<br>We can never cross the river of good-byes<br>While desire hides in the darkness<br>Searching for the flame<br><br>There were so many days<br>And still I wonder why<br>I will never mend these broken wings<br>No matter how I try<br>I thought we had it all, but now it seems<br>We just flickered like a candle<br>In the cathedral of our dreams<br><br>Just take my heart put it on ice<br>Your love is a fire, a burning hurricane<br>We can never cross the river of good- byes<br>While desire hides in the darkness<br>Searching for the flame<br><br>Just take my heart put it on ice<br>Your love is a fire, a burning hurricane<br>We can never cross the river of good-byes<br>While desire hides in the darkness<br>Searching for the flame
