LYRIC FOR SALE

By Thomas B. Heffner

(Verse 1)
We blended together like an old-fashioned love song
You were the music and I was the words all along
But these days the harmony's slipping away
And whatever I do, it just comes out the wrong way

(Pew-Chorus)
We could do no wrong, our love was warm and nice
Now the years have turned us into fire and ice...

(Chorus)
Fire and Ice - that's what we've become
Fire and Ice - your heart's grown cold, my anger burns like the sun
Fire and Ice - canceling each other out
Fire and Ice - stuck in the same worn-out route

(Verse 2)
We once could talk about anything at all
Shared our dreams, our fears, the big and the small
Our life was a fairytale from long ago
Now I'm not your king, and you're not my queen anymore

(Pre-Chorus)
So here we are just tossing the dice
Gambling away our love like fire and ice...

(Chorus)
Fire and Ice - that's what we've become
Fire and Ice - your heart's grown cold, my anger burns like the sun
Fire and Ice - canceling each other out
Fire and Ice - stuck in the same worn-out route

(Verse 3)
Now we sail away on a storm-tossed sea
Drifting apart to the places we'll be
No looking back at the land we once knew
Empty hearts, but we're finally breaking through

(Bridge)
No more battles, no more blame
No more playing the same old game
Let the fire fade, let the ice melt down
We're better apart than we were bound

(Final Chorus)
Fire and Ice - a storm we've left behind
Fire and Ice - two different hearts, two different kinds
Fire and Ice - no longer tearing us apart
Fire and Ice - now we can make a brand-new start

(Post-Chorus / Outro)
Fire and ice is a thing of the past
Living our separate lives, happy at last
