[Verse 1]
I saw you in a painting, I could swear it was you
You were sitting on a balcony in Eighteen Thirty-Two
You had long hair, a complexion fair
Just the same as you do now, 'cept you were younger there
I'm on the outside looking in
[Verse 2]
Monday afternoon's when the women are about
And the cash machine informs you that the money's run out
I'm on the outside looking in
[Chorus]
Oh my, my, my, a stranger by my side
Die, die, die, die, last night I should have died
For once in my life, I'm on the ice
[Verse 1]
I saw you in a painting, I could swear it was you
You were sitting on a balcony in Eighteen Thirty-Two
You had long hair, a complexion fair
Just the same as you do now, 'cept you were younger there
I'm on the outside looking in
[Chorus]
Oh my, my, my, a stranger by my side
Die, die, die, die, last night I should have died
For once in my life, I'm on the ice
(I'm on the ice)
