Lyrics

Ice

Ice, ice

My mouth is frozen so I can't even speak
What a disappointment, I had it perfectly
What I was going to bring up suddenly
Stood like a stone as you stood quietly

You're making it hard for me (hard for me)
And all I could do wass freeze

What I mean is, all I need is
Just a little emotion
'Cause all I see is you not feeling
And you're giving me nothing nice

I tried to do you right
Why'd you have to go and turn to ice?
(Ice, ice)

I don't think you're knowing how hard this is for me
I'm not the type to say sorry constantly
So I swallowed my pride and I got on my knees
But still you just stood there as you stared at me

Your ego is getting old (ego is getting old)
How did you get so cold?

What I mean is, all I need is
Just a little emotion
'Cause all I see is you not feeling
And you're giving me nothing nice

I tried to do you right
Why'd you have to go and turn to ice?
(Ice, ice)

I'm looking at you looking at me
What can I do but say sorry
It's a little late but you know I just want you to be happy
What I got to say to make you let me get away with it this time
I know you're upset, I made you happy just to be sitting with me
But I'll make a bet that you'll be better to forget about me
Even better, yet I'll let a little light melt the ice, ice, baby

My mouth is frozen so I can't even speak
I'm not the type to say sorry constantly

What I mean is, all I need is
Just a little emotion
'Cause all I see is you not feeling
And you're giving me nothing

What I need is all I need is
Just a little emotion
'Cause all I see is you not feeling
And you're giving me nothing nice

I tried to do you right
Why'd you have to go-
I tried to do you right
Why'd you have to go and turn to ice?
