TENSE TUESDAY: 'AS COLD AS ICE' AND LYRICS

Good morning. Happy Tuesday to you all!

Did you get the correct answer on yesterday's Missing Monday? Thanks to those of you who participated!

For today's Tense Tuesday, we are taking a little break from the normal grammar-tense posts. Instead, we will continue with the "as...as" expressions we started earlier this month, and will listen to a song that uses the expression AS COLD AS ICE.  

Definition: used to describe a cold person; a person without emotion.

Example 1: Joe is really friendly, but his wife is as cold as ice. 

There is an old song by the band Foreigner called Cold As Ice. You can listen to the song at the following link:

Below are the lyrics. Enjoy practicing this AS...AS expression with this classic rock song!

As Cold As Ice

You're as cold as ice
You're willing to sacrifice our love
You never take advice
Someday you'll pay the price, I know

I've seen it before
It happens all the time
You're closing the door
You leave the world behind

You're digging for gold
Yet throwing away
A fortune in feelings
But someday you'll pay

You're as cold as ice
You're willing to sacrifice our love
You want Paradise
But someday you'll pay the price
I know

I've seen it before
It happens all the time
You're closing the door
You leave the world behind
You're digging for gold
Yet throwing away
A fortune in feelings
But someday you'll pay

Cold as ice, you know that you are
Cold, (cold) as, (as) ice,
As cold as ice to me
(Cold, cold cold) (as, as, as) (ice)
(Ooh, ooh, ooh, cold as, cold as ice)
(You're as cold as ice)
You're as cold as ice
(Cold as ice),
Cold as ice I know

(repeats)

I hope you have a great day!
