07 Ice & Bone (NKD)

Chronicles the demise of a relationship – pretty much speaks for itself

lyrics

Ice & Bone
© 2018 Nancy K. Dillon (BMI)

You’re asleep one room away
Might as well be a galaxy
For all the wasted nights alone
We’re statues carved of ice and frozen bone

We are strangers with a history
I could never be the one you had in mind
Like all the dreams of marbled stone
We’re sculptures made of ice and frozen bone

BRIDGE

Lost trails of endless tears
On windless roads of frozen ground
Bare feet on broken glass
Bleed deep red blood … make no sound

Dust accumulates on shelves
Fallen fences lean into the gloom
And shadows melt among the weeds
A billion tiny cracks begin to show
In sculptures made of ice and frozen bone

MIDDLE 8:

Heaven was a hopeless dream beyond our grasp
Falling like a helpless star to land at last
Helpless….helpless…

Dust accumulates on shelves
Fallen fences lean into the gloom
And shadows melt among the weeds
A billion tiny cracks begin to show
In sculptures made of ice and frozen bone

Helpless….helpless…

Helpless….helpless…

Inspired by Oklahoma & Texas troubadours Townes Van Zandt, Guy Clark, and Kevin Welch, Dillon's songs are short stories about characters that populate true American life. ... more
