Been waiting heres ince daybreak
Like so many daybreaks past
Can't stand another cheery morning
With the smiles that fade too fast
Well sticks and stones may bruise me
But breaks and bruises heal
If ever was a deadly weapon
It's the touch that just don't feel
Pool with no water
Tears with no salt
Love with no passion
Friendly to a fault
Don't freeze me out here
In the land of bone and ice
It's just me, you don't have to be
So nice
Once upon a time
There was a girl I knew
She had courageousness sewn on her dress
Well surprise, that girl was you
I know that she's not vanished
Or forever lost at sea
She's just swallowed up in someone else's
Idea of what must be
Repeat chorus
You say you want a good love
And not be someone's slave
But don't you know where freedom rings
True love has got to be brave
Somewhere down the line
A train has been derailed
They're busy handling round candy hearts
Instead of looking for the trail
Repeat chorus
Don't freeze me out here
In the land of bone and ice
It's just me, you don't have to be
So nice
