You could come to my house
You could call me on the phone
But instead, all I get is a little crumb of bread
When you're feeling sad and 'lone
Wouldn't it be nice to treat you cold as ice?
But is that the way for a good woman to be?
And it takes all I have to behave and hold it back:
When I talk to you, I feel like kindness is killing me
You could find something good to say
Or better yet just walk away
But instead you play my mind and try to keep me on the line
But I'd be a fool to stay
Wouldn't it be nice to treat you cold as ice?
But is that the way for a good woman to be?
And it takes all I have to behave and hold it back:
When I talk to you, I feel like kindness is killing me
Oh, I'm trying to speak blessing
But it's downright depressing the way you throw it back in my face
May the Lord bless and keep
You far out of my reach
I wanna love you but I'm running out of steam
Wouldn't it be nice to treat you cold as ice?
But is that the way for a good woman to be?
And it takes all I have to behave and hold it back:
When I talk to you, I feel like kindness is killing me
