Neil Finn - Hole in the Ice lyrics

Take it down

mess it up

Light a match

make a fire

Walk away as the money burns

It might just save your life

I play the happenstance

I see my fortune fly

Everytime you lift the cup

And another long day goes by

And I wont travel into the straw daylight desire

I wrote that

some Eskimo gave me the line

Sit back and watch the money burn

Five days in a hot house hell

Once youre gone theres no return

And theyre never gonna let you lie

I want my love to burn

Hotter than a comets tail

I want my bed to cry

And I never wanna let you down

And I wont travel into the straw daylight desire

I wrote that

some Eskimo gave me the line

And all I ever do is therapy one on one

one on one

And you and I we might want the same thing one on one

one on one

I dont want a teacher to remind me

one on one

one on one

How to get something better out of my life

I play the happenstance

I see my fortune fly

Everytime I lift the cup

And another long day goes by

And I wont travel into the pale moonlight desire

I wrote that

some Eskimo gave me the line

Your freedom is so precious that it makes me hurt

I learnt that

my teacher was my loneliness

And wisdom can be passed on by the one whos left

And freedom is so precious that it makes it work
