Icy Blue Heart - Emmylou Harris

(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 youLord 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 startto 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'snot enough heat in the fires burning there 
To melt your icy blue heart 

Should I startto turn what's been frozen for years 
Into a river of tears 
To melt your icy blue heart
