[Death Cab For Cutie - 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 bury our love in the wintry grave
A lump in the snow was all that remained
Though we stayed by it's 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
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
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 bury our love in the wintry grave
A lump in the snow was all that remained
Though we stayed by it's 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
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
