I know by heart each paving-stone on every street
and that the eyes of strangers are not mine to meet
the night is young and I have countless miles to trawl
but the glare of headlights shows me there is nothing there at all
neon signs can't ever light the sadness at my heels
nor empty voices make amends for all the joy that living steals
and thought the night is warm... it is the coldness that I feel
what can be done to warm a frozen heart
what does it take to make the loving start
I dreamed of love... that I would find it by and by
that luck would change and like an eagle I would fly
high above the city lights we’d circle there
that you would float as one upon the summer air
with nothing left to weigh us down... nothing to explain
that you would ask me where I hurt and soothe away the pain
please let it happen now so I can start to live again
what can be done to warm a frozen heart
what does it take to make the loving start
how to keep the dream alive
to watch another night retreat another day arrive
and the light of morning still believe that love survives
what can be done to warm a frozen heart
what does it take to make the loving start
