Heart On Ice - Emerson Lake & Palmer

Just take my heart put it on ice 
'Cause I don't think I could stand another blow
Just one more tumble of the dice
Though it's slipping through my hands 
I can't let go 

And when the hard rain falls 
Whatever you may say 
There's no hiding in this jungle 
You just can't run away 

And I'm sorry when I fell from grace 
Unable to conceal 
Only passion is a fool to chase 
The loneliness I fell 

Just take my heart into the night 
It no longer needs to see the light of day
Heaven knows I cannot fight
As the edges of my soul get chipped away 

Walking down this street 
The gutter runs with tears 
I would sell my heart
To cross the bridge of compromise 

But you cannot walk on broken glass 
'Cause every step you take
Is just one cut deeper than the last
Just one more heart you break 

Just take my heart put it on ice
Your love is a fire, a burning hurricane 
We can never cross the river of good-byes
While desire hides in the darkness 
Searching for the flame 

There were so many days 
And still I wonder why 
I will never mend these broken wings 
No matter how I try 
I thought we had it all, but now it seems
We just flickered like a candle 
In the cathedral of our dreams 

Just take my heart put it on ice 
Your love is a fire, a burning hurricane 
We can never cross the river of good- byes 
While desire hides in the darkness 
Searching for the flame 

Just take my heart put it on ice
Your love is a fire, a burning hurricane 
We can never cross the river of good-byes 
While desire hides in the darkness 
Searching for the flame
