Yoko Ono - Walking On Thin Ice - Spiritualized lyrics

Walking on thin ice I'm paying the price For throwing the dice in the air Why must we learn it the hard way And play the game of life with your heart? I gave you my knife You gave me my life Like a gush of wind in my hair Why do we forget what's been said And play the game of life with our hearts? I may cry some day But the tears will dry whichever way And when our hearts return to ashes It'll be just a story It'll be just a story I knew a girl who tried to walk across the lake Course it was winter when all this was ice That's a hell of a thing to do, you know They say the lake is as big as the ocean I wonder if she knew about it?
