Window frosted in the rain
Dusty pages, broken lines
Is all we have

Candle shadow in the flame
Of the moments that we try
To start again

Of many things that I remember
Too many now that you forget

How can you tell me that it gone
How can you turn and walk away

[Chorus]
Don't say it's over
Don't turn away
A love so fine
Now it's over
Don't turn/give away
A love so fine

The empty room you leave behind
Nothing is, nothing belongs
Nothing belongs

The faded roses by the door
The picture hanging on my wall
No more than this

Of the promises we made
Of the good time that we had

'Cause they don't come to nothing now
Just look again before you go

[Chorus]

Dusty pages, broken lines

So many things that I remember
Too many now that you forget

How can you tell me that it gone
How can you turn and walk away

[Chorus]

Don't say it's over

A love so fine

Now it's over
Don't give away
A love so fine

Icehouse

Icehouse is an Australian rock band, formed as Flowers in 1977 in Sydney. Initially known in Australia for their pub rock style, they later achieved mainstream success playing New Wave and synthpop style music and attained Top Ten singles chart success in both Europe and the U.S. The mainstay of both Flowers and Icehouse has been Iva Davies (singer-songwriter, record producer, guitar, bass, keyboards, oboe) supplying additional musicians as required. The name Icehouse, which was adopted in 1981, comes from an old, cold flat Davies lived in and the strange building across the road populated by itinerant people. more »
