I hear you skating on the ice



And wonder why you left me twice



The eerie sound of blade on lake



Cracks my skin and I fill with ache



But I don't want this heart



I don't need this blood









I see you running through the grass



A doctors daughter, a sky of glass



My swollen eye at sunday school



No saviour here under God's bright rule



But I don't want this heart



I don't need this blood









Time to be leaving, run from your reach



Gonna go dreaming on Orpheus Beach









I feel you breathing in my head



But better there if not in bed



I wash your perfume from my clothes



I don't believe that affection goes



But I don't want this heart



I don't need this blood









Time to be leaving, run from your reach



Gonna go dreaming on Orpheus Beach
