Cover it up in ivory cool
          My logic fails with a winter fools
          
I feel music that is wild and free
            And I know the fire and the fire knows me
          You looked at me with those tired eyes
            Said, "It's time you realize
            You must grow up, that time has come"
            But I just smiled and I sang this song
          Your love is gone
            Your heart's too cold
            My love is given
            While yours is sold
            You call me a child
            And that's just fine
            You lose your dreams
            And I keep mine
          Looked at him with no surprise
            I said, "Long time since I realized
            As my body grows old my loving grows
            I still touch the vision
            I still smell the rose"
          Your love is gone
            Your heart's too cold
            My love is given
            While yours is sold
            You call me a child
            And that's just fine
            You lose your dreams
            And I keep mine
          You let them fly
            I let them carry me
            You let them die
            I let them flourish here
          Your love is gone
            Your heart's too cold
            My love is given
            While yours is sold
            You call me a child
            And that's just fine
            You lose your dreams
            And I keep mine
          Cover it up in ivory cool
            My logic fails with a winter fools
          For I feel the music that is wild and free
            And I know the fire and the fire knows me
          Your love is gone
            Your heart's too cold
