Ice King - Momus

If ever emotional defences open wide

If ever you see me cry

If ever you notice how you make me feel inside

This thing will blow sky high

If ever emotional defences open wide

If ever you see me cry

If ever you notice how you make me feel inside

I think I just might die

How could you know

I wanted you so

I acted cool so you couldn’t see

For here deep inside

I so easily hide

Exactly what you mean to me

But it was so strange

When everything changed

Your answer took me by surprise

And now that we’re lovers

You think you’ve discovered

How to make a cold man cry

You think you’re kissing the ice king, dark thing

But I was always warm

I was yours for the asking, dark thing

I was hot for you all along

If ever emotional defences open wide

If ever you see me cry

If ever you notice how you make me feel inside

This thing will blow sky high

If ever emotional defences open wide

If ever you see me cry

If ever you notice how you make me feel inside

I think I just might die

I know you can’t stand

An emotional man

And so I play for time

Keeping it light

In the hope that you might

One day maybe change your mind

Sometimes in bed

It enters my head

To tell you that my love is strong

But I don’t say a word

When I notice how hard

You work to turn a cold man on

You think you’re kissing the ice king, dark thing

But I was always warm

I was yours for the asking, dark thing

I was hot for you all along

You think you’re kissing the ice king, dark thing

How wrong can a woman be?

If you knew the intensity of my feelings

How long would you stay with me?

You think you’re kissing the i-i-i

If ever emotional defences open wide

If ever you see me cry

If ever you notice how you make me feel inside

I think I just might, I think I just might
