We're not the same, dear
|
As we used to be
|
The seasons have changed
|
And so have we
|
And 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 a wintry grave
|
A lump in the snow
|
Was all that remained
|
But 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 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
|
And 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
|
|
