David Wilcox - Dynamite in the Distance lyrics

He plants the charges on the river On the ice, on the ice, He'll break the silence of the winter, For a price, for a price When you hear the sound from far enough away, Even dynamite can purr, Hand in hand along the memory of the way they were, They were, They were walking on the ice of all the things he'll never say to her. They can drive out on the water Like its land, like its land He takes the detonator wires In his hands, in his hands When you hear the sound from far enough away, Even dynamite can purr, Hand in hand along the memory of the way they were, They were They were walking on the ice of all the things he'll never say to her. Acres of snow Long as that all ice stays hard So they made their home Safe within their lovely yard She's got her ear against his heartbeat In their bed, in their bed, Somehow the things he's never spoken Have been said, have been said When she hears the sound from far enough away, Even dynamite can purr, Hand in hand along the memory of the way they were, They were, They were walking on the ice of all the things he'll never say to her.
