[Verse 1]
You're as cold as ice
You're willing to sacrifice our love
You never take advice
Some day, you'll pay the price
I know
[Chorus]
I've seen it before, it happens all the time (Ooh-ooh)
You're closing the door, you leave the world behind
You're digging for gold, you're throwing away (Ah, ah)
A fortune in feelings but, some day, you'll pay
[Verse 2]
You're as cold as ice
You're willing to sacrifice our love
You want paradise
But some day, you'll pay the price
I know
[Chorus]
I've seen it before, it happens all the time (Ooh-ooh)
You're closing the door, you leave the world behind
You're digging for gold, you're throwing away (Ah, ah)
A fortune in feelings but, some day, you'll pay
[Bridge]
Cold as ice
You know that you are
Cold as ice
As cold as ice to me
Cold as ice
[Outro]
Ooh, ooh, ooh, cold as, cold as ice
You're as cold as ice
You're as cold as ice, cold as ice, I know
You're as cold as ice, yes I know
You're as cold as ice, cold as ice, I know
You're as cold as ice, oh, yes I know
You're as cold as ice, cold as ice, I know
You're as cold as ice, oh, yes I know
You're as cold as ice, cold as ice
You're as cold as ice
You're willing to sacrifice our love
You never take advice
Some day, you'll pay the price
I know
[Chorus]
I've seen it before, it happens all the time (Ooh-ooh)
You're closing the door, you leave the world behind
You're digging for gold, you're throwing away (Ah, ah)
A fortune in feelings but, some day, you'll pay
[Verse 2]
You're as cold as ice
You're willing to sacrifice our love
You want paradise
But some day, you'll pay the price
I know
[Chorus]
I've seen it before, it happens all the time (Ooh-ooh)
You're closing the door, you leave the world behind
You're digging for gold, you're throwing away (Ah, ah)
A fortune in feelings but, some day, you'll pay
[Bridge]
Cold as ice
You know that you are
Cold as ice
As cold as ice to me
Cold as ice
[Outro]
Ooh, ooh, ooh, cold as, cold as ice
You're as cold as ice
You're as cold as ice, cold as ice, I know
You're as cold as ice, yes I know
You're as cold as ice, cold as ice, I know
You're as cold as ice, oh, yes I know
You're as cold as ice, cold as ice, I know
You're as cold as ice, oh, yes I know
You're as cold as ice, cold as ice
