The Ice Is Getting Thinner

Lyrics

We're not the same, dear
 As we used to be
 The seasons have changed
 And so have we
 There was little we could say
 And even less that we could do
 To stop the ice from getting thinner
 Under me and you
 We buried our love
 In the wintry grave
 A lump in the snow
 Was all that remained
 Though we stayed by its side
 As the days turned to weeks
 And the ice kept getting thinner
 With every word that we'd speak
 And when the spring arrived
 We were taken by surprise
 When the floes under our feet
 Bled into the sea
 And nothing was left for you and me
 ♪
 We're not the same, dear
 And it seems to me
 There's nowhere we can go
 With nothing underneath
 Then it saddens me to say
 What we both knew was true
 That the ice was getting thinner
 Under me and you
 The ice was getting thinner
 Under me and you
 
 We're not the same, dear
 As we used to be
 The seasons have changed
 And so have we
 There was little we could say
 And even less that we could do
 To stop the ice from getting thinner
 Under me and you
 We buried our love
 In the wintry grave
 A lump in the snow
 Was all that remained
 Though we stayed by its side
 As the days turned to weeks
 And the ice kept getting thinner
 With every word that we'd speak
 And when the spring arrived
 We were taken by surprise
 When the floes under our feet
 Bled into the sea
 And nothing was left for you and me
 ♪
 We're not the same, dear
 And it seems to me
 There's nowhere we can go
 With nothing underneath
 Then it saddens me to say
 What we both knew was true
 That the ice was getting thinner
 Under me and you
 The ice was getting thinner
 Under me and you
