Walking On Thin Ice Lyrics By Yoko Ono

    walking on thin ice
    i’m paying the price
    for throwing the dice in the air
    why must we learn it the hard way
    and play the game of life with your heart

    i gave you my knife
    you gave me my life
    like a gush of wind in my hair
    why do we forget what’s been said
    and play the game of life with our hearts
    i may cry someday
    but the tears will dry whichever way
    and when our hearts return to ashes
    it’ll be just a story
    it’ll be just a story

    aiaiaiaiaiaiaiai

    oohahooh

    i knew a girl who tried to walk across the lake
    ‘course it was winter when all this was ice
    that’s a hell of a thing to do you know
    they say the lake is as big as the ocean
    i wonder if she knew about it
