"Tears On Ice" lyrics - NILS LOFGREN

Drove dark back roads all night
To see you face to face
You say the times aren't right
Tried to phone later at your place

I didn't come all this way
To be lonely one more day
I'm tired of paying the price
Keepin' my tears on ice

Here stands an honest man
Please be an honest friend
Either we stand a chance
Or this must come to an end

'Cause I won't live too long
Feelin' so alone and wrong
I can't keep payin' the price
Keepin' my tears on ice

Let's do what it takes
Scream and cry till the good light breaks
Or admit we're in love
And let's start living again
I wanna live again

It's your turn to get real
Figure out how you really feel
'Cause I didn't come all this way
To be lonely one more day
I'm tired of payin' that price
Of keepin' my tears on ice

Must I pay this price?
Keepin' my tears on ice

Tears on ice [5x]
