Grey Ice Water
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
You're standing by the grey ice water
Out in the wind above ground out in the weather
You had yourself a crazy lover
Becoming frozen trying hard to forget her
You got a job up in alaska
It's easy to save what the cannery pays
Cause there ain't no way to spend it
You're standing by the grey ice water
Out in the wind above ground out in the weather
You had yourself a crazy lover
Becoming frozen trying hard to forget her
You took the path of least resistance
On the phone cutting out talking
Short to long distance
At home on a boat, it's a fish trap
On the arctic blast
