Frozen River

I've never been skating on a frozen river



Joni and Jane make it sound so cool



Sometimes I can get so down it seems



Nothing much is gonna turn me around



They could freeze the brook outside my home



But it's only small, not like the Hudson



Where I'd be clean away, the only one



Down through winter trees, on a smooth run on a frozen river



But look at me now I'm getting to you



And all afternoon you have been so bright



"No use turning good into bad"



At times like this you are always right



And the snowdrops are through, I never knew



And my oldest jokes still have you reeling



I'll put the troubles I find to the back of my mind



Sometimes my love has the craziest feeling like a frozen river



Half the world will sleep alone tonight



Friends of mine as well



Half the world are on their own tonight



Friends of mine as well



There's a river below this bright night sky



So full of stars, it's the best for ages



Where I stand in the lane, having shut off the car



Just hearing your wonder like a frozen river



You're like a frozen river
