Lyrics to Figureskating, Neusiedlersee
You said it first, but you were the last to know
The water froze, but you told me it wasn't so
We walked on the lake till we couldn't see the shore
Could we have done more?
And you crossed your heart and you traced it twice
There's a crack in the ice where I skated your name
Well, the tides will reverse and the clocks will go back
And the life we shared won't remain in tact at all
And the surgeon's knife will erase all memory
And we'll be free
'Cause you crossed your heart and you hoped to die
There's a gun in your hand and a knife carving your name
Well, you crossed your heart and you hoped to die
There's a gun in your hand and a knife carving my name
Yeah, you crossed your heart and you traced it twice
There's a crack in the ice where I skated your name
The water froze, but you told me it wasn't so
We walked on the lake till we couldn't see the shore
Could we have done more?
And you crossed your heart and you traced it twice
There's a crack in the ice where I skated your name
Well, the tides will reverse and the clocks will go back
And the life we shared won't remain in tact at all
And the surgeon's knife will erase all memory
And we'll be free
'Cause you crossed your heart and you hoped to die
There's a gun in your hand and a knife carving your name
Well, you crossed your heart and you hoped to die
There's a gun in your hand and a knife carving my name
Yeah, you crossed your heart and you traced it twice
There's a crack in the ice where I skated your name
