THIN ICE (continued)

The sun rose
Morning began to melt the snow
As though Spring were to come again
You turned your desperate eyes to him
(While) I stood there like a fool
Watching your hatred grow
From a seed deep inside of you
The one he planted a short while ago
A garden of thorns and sweet bitter fruit

Under your skin
A bloody thorn found its way in
To poison my smile from your veins
And with his promises by your side
And with no reason why
You stood up with spite
(And) set your sights to kill on thin ice
What was the crime to deserve such a fate?
Did I hold on too long or let go too late?

Perfect aim
You turned your loaded gun on me
You had no right to cause such pain
You fired once just to wound my pride
You took off your disguise
With vengeance, you shot twice
I had to wonder to myself
As my life lay there bleeding on thin ice
Was it you or me we didnít recognize

How do I say
How do I say good-bye
I wish you well
Have a good life
And maybe I was crazy
But something inside was beginning to die
And when it did I cried
Wonít someone dial

911
Somehow something went terribly wrong
Your cruelty makes you feel so strong
And now look at this mess weíre in
It just keeps me bleeding all the time
I never knew loving you held a price
Until you crushed my heart with your cold hands
And every diamond turned to white sand


Turn the page
Scrapbooks of things we used to cling
Changed to red tape and knotted string
Keeping us tied to what we had
Back when we were in love
But this last chapter is turning out bad
Itís all on thin ice, babe canít you see that
On thin ice is the story of our lives

Iím Sorry
The one thing you could never say
Pride seemed to just get in your way
Words like that never came easy
And after all these years
After all those tears
Forgive me
Seems to be the hardest one of all
But I loved you, I loved you. I loved you.

Hard hearted
Oh yeah, youíre a real tough lady
The dark Goddess of Hating
Show no mercy, seek and destroy
Take no prisoners, baby
Or just go take it all
Take much more than your arms can hold
But somewhere out there a little boy cries
So warm and loved and heís standing on thin ice


How could I
Say good-bye to the child
The lifeline shared
Is a thread so bare
But just enough to do what I must do
I can save one but for once it isnít you
So I just gotta say
Have a nice day

Iíve got to go
Itís our last good-bye
So long baby
Have a good life
The glass house walls are about to cave in
Iíve tried but I
I canít save you from thin ice
Good-bye baby. So long, honey
Live and let die.
