lyrics

One look at you is enough to make any man freeze
I'm a deer in your headlights, babe, just tryin' to put my mind at ease
Most ladies make it easy if you know what I mean
But the effect you have on me is something unforeseen

I've misplaced my matchbox and my lighter's out of order
I wanna take you higher, babe, but the fuse is getting shorter
My temperature is sinking but I'll still roll the dice
I can't help it, babe, you look me in the eyes and I turn to ice

Wanna feel the groove but I can't make a move, I'm ice
Love can't unfold 'cause I'm so damn cold, I'm ice
Now I'm frozen 'cause it's you I've chosen
And my chances are lost unless I can defrost

I like to play it cool but you take it to another level
If you're an angel, babe, Imma need a little help from the devil
Now if you touch me, you know that I might shatter
When I'm with, you know it doesn't matter

I've misplaced my matchbox and my lighter's out of order
I wanna take you higher, babe, but the fuse is getting shorter
My temperature is sinking but I'll still roll the dice
I can't help it, babe, you look me in the eyes and I turn to ice

Wanna feel the groove but I can't make a move, I'm ice
Love can't unfold 'cause I'm so damn cold, I'm ice
Now I'm frozen 'cause it's you I've chosen
And my chances are lost unless I can defrost

No inhibitions, it's not fear
My mind is blank but I'm crystal-clear
I wanna be with you for what it merits
Don't know what it is but I'm twenty-four carat ice

No inhibitions, it's not fear
My mind is blank but I'm crystal-clear
I wanna be with you for what it merits
Don't know what it is but I'm twenty-four carat ice

Just want to feel the groove, ice
But I can't make a move, ice
And our love can't unfold, ice
Just want to feel the groove, ice
And our love can't unfold, ice
'Cause I'm so cold, ice

about

Circular Reasoning Seattle, Washington

Circular Reasoning is an unconventional retrofitting of R&B and funk from the fertile grounds of the Seattle music scene, overlaying psychedelic, jazzy abstractions over old-school stone grooves. Materialized in the U-District by arranger/keyboardist Mikko Nynäs, CR has been romping around the Seattle area since 2011, spewing novel sounds and unorthodox lyricism. ... more
