Icy Hands Will Never Melt Away
when you were a bird i built a nest of straw for you
listened to you sing in the morning dawn
you would fly to spain just to see the countryside
used to run below just to watch you fly
icy hands will never melt away
i keep knock-knockin' on your door
(knock knock knock)
you were always changing your shape
now you're not a bird anymore
when you were a frog i built a special pond for you
listened to you croakin' on the summer nights
you would swim around and rest in the tall grass
used to look for you but you would always hide
icy hands will never melt away
i keep knock-knockin' on your door
(knock knock knock)
you were always changing your shape
now you're not a frog anymore
when you were an eel we would swim around a lot
splish and splash about with the changing tides
you would light the way when it got too dark at night
used to get shocked but i didn't mind
icy hands will never melt away
i keep knock-knockin' on your door
(knock knock knock)
you were always changing your shape
now you're not an eel anymore
Las manos heladas nunca se derretirán
Cuando eras un pájaro construí un nido de paja para ti
te escuchaba cantar en el amanecer
volabas a España solo para ver el campo
solía correr abajo solo para verte volar
Las manos heladas nunca se derretirán
sigo tocando tu puerta
(toc toc toc)
siempre cambiabas de forma
ahora ya no eres un pájaro
Cuando eras una rana construí un estanque especial para ti
te escuchaba croar en las noches de verano
nadabas y descansabas en la hierba alta
solía buscarte pero siempre te escondías
Las manos heladas nunca se derretirán
sigo tocando tu puerta
(toc toc toc)
siempre cambiabas de forma
ahora ya no eres una rana
Cuando eras una anguila nadábamos mucho
chapoteábamos con las mareas cambiantes
iluminabas el camino cuando la noche se ponía oscura
solía sorprenderme pero no me importaba
Las manos heladas nunca se derretirán
sigo tocando tu puerta
(toc toc toc)
siempre cambiabas de forma
ahora ya no eres una anguila
