SIm LA SIm LA
As I sit in the all night diner
SIm LA SIm LA
You return to your easy chair
SIm LA SIm LA
You awake to your work and your woman
SIm LA SOLmaj 7
And I'll dream that it's me lying there
SIm LA SIm LA
You can look in my eyes but you'll never know
SIm LA SIm LA
There's an ache inside that I never show
SOLmaj 7
A defensive device
LA SIm LA SIm LA
Meant to keep my heart on ice
SIm LA SIm LA SIm LA SIm LA
I keep my heart on ice I chill my holy soul
SIm LA SIm
I shield my fragile eggshell love
SOLmaj 7 LA
From attack during the groundswell
SIm LA SIm LA SIm LA SIm LA
I'll act the part so well I'll play my finest role
SIm LA SIm
But the furies take their toll and their price
SOLmaj 7 SIm LA SIm LA
Is to keep my heart on ice
SIm LA SIm LA
As I sit in the all night diner
SIm LA SIm LA
You leaned back in your nightclub seat
SIm LA SIm LA
I went out with two friends and a stranger
SIm LA SOLmaj 7
With a laugh and a pang of defeat
SIm LA SIm LA SIm
But I looked in your eyes as I turned to go
SIm LA SIm
Was there something there that you couldn't show
SOLmaj 7
A defensive device
SIm LA SIm
Meant to keep your heart of ice
SIm LA SIm LA SIm LA SIm LA
You keep your heart on ice you chill your holy soul
SIm LA SIm
You shield your fragile eggshell love
SOLmaj 7 LA
From attack during the groundswell
SIm LA SIm LA SIm LA SIm LA
You act the part so well you'll play your finest role
SIm LA SIm
But the furies take their toll and their price
SOLmaj 7 SIm LA SIm LA
Is to keep my heart on ice
SIm LA SIm LA
As I sit in the all night diner
SIm LA SIm LA
I was thinking of you at the bar
SIm LA SIm LA
And the smiles and the jests and the whispers
SIm SOLmaj 7
As I watched once again from afar
SIm LA SIm LA
But I looked in your eyes and I never knew
SIm LA SIm LA
Did I read you wrong did I misconstrue
SOLmaj 7 SIm
The defensive device I will keep my heart on ice
SIm LA SIm LA SIm LA SIm LA
I keep my heart on ice I chill my holy soul
SIm LA SIm
I shield my fragile eggshell love
SOLmaj 7 LA
From attack during the groundswell
SIm LA SIm LA SIm LA SIm LA
I'll act the part so well I'll play my finest role
SIm LA SIm
But the furies take their toll and their price
SOLmaj 7 SIm LA SIm LA
Is to keep my heart on ice
