[Verse 1]
It's always cold inside the icehouse
Though the rivers never freeze
There's a girl outside the icehouse
I can see her clearly though the trees
And now she's dreaming of a new love
And she hopes he'll be there soon
But she's got so long to wait for him
Because he needs another year to get there
She'll wait another lifetime out there
There's no love inside the icehouse

[Verse 2]
The devil lives inside the icehouse
At least that's what the old ones say
(They say) He came a long time ago
He came here in the winter snow
Now it's colder every day
But she's still dreaming through the summer
And she's hoping through the spring
She says she's got no time for winter nights
She doesn't notice as the days grow darker
She can't remember getting any older
There's no love inside the icehouse

[Verse 3]
And now she's dreaming of a new love
And she hopes he'll be there soon
She says she's got no time for winter nights
She doesn't notice as the days grow darker
She can't remember getting any older
There's no love inside the icehouse
There's no love inside the icehouse
The icehouse
