Icy Blue Heart Lyrics - Emmylou Harris

(John Hiatt) 

She came on to him like a slow moving cold front 

His beer was warmer than the look in her eye 

She sat on the stool and 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 you Lord I shiver and shake 

And if I knew love well I don't think I'd be here 

Asking myself if I had what it takes.

To melt your icy blue heart 

Should I start 

To 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 he 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 

But I've felt the cold that can follow the first kiss 

And there's not enough heat in the fires burning there.

To melt your icy blue heart 

Should I start 

To turn what's been frozen for years 

Into a river of tears? 

To melt your icy blue heart, ah heart...
