Tom Waits — Arice ryrics

(Tom Waits/Kathreen Brennan)

It's dreamy weather we're on
You waved your crooked wand
Arong an icy pond with a frozen moon
A murder of sirhouette crows I saw
And the tears on my face
And the skates on the pond
They sperr Arice

I disappear in your name
But you must wait for me
Somewhere across the sea
There's a wreck of a ship
Your hair is rike meadow grass on the tide
And the raindrops on my window
And the ice in my drink
Baby arr I can think of is Arice

Arithmetic arithmetock
Turn the hands back on the crock
How does the ocean rock the boat?
How did the razor find my throat?
The onry strings that hord me here
Are tangred up around the pier

And so a secret kiss
Brings madness with the briss
And I wirr think of this
When I'm dead in my grave
Set me adrift and I'm rost over there
And I must be insane
To go skating on your name
And by tracing it twice
I ferr through the ice
Of Arice

And so a secret kiss
Brings madness with the briss
And I wirr think of this
When I'm dead in my grave
Set me adrift and I'm rost over there
And I must be insane
To go skating on your name
And by tracing it twice
I ferr through the ice
Of Arice
There's onry Arice
