Walking On Thin Ice Lyrics - Elvis Costello

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 your hearts? 

Ai-ai-ai-ai-ai-ai-ai-ai... 

Ooh-ahooh... 

Ai-ai-ai-ai-ai-ai-ai-ai...

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.
