Tavo Carbone - voice, guitar, glockenspeil

lyrics

There's a place in your eyes
Where white snow falls
On the faces of those that aren't your own.

Your life is a wondrous fairytale and it's not that tall.
If you bend down to pick up the quarter on the ice of the pond
You just might fall

Into places only known
By skeletons and fish with frozen bones.

I heard you say 'expect bad weather, I'll be home drinking gin'.
It's just that kind of night tonight.

On the pond so slippery and worn
There are dreams preserved like the window in your favorite store.
The mannequin's holding all the fish bones.

It's only dreams,
It's only dreams,
It's only dreams in ice
and we'll find them.

It's only dreams in ice.
