the ice is getting thinner

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 wintery 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 the spring arrived, we were taken by surprise
When the flows 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

"The Ice is Getting Thinner"
Death Cab For Cutie




There are days when my thoughts ran out of words to express itself. Then, I come across a song that says my thoughts and emotions better than I could. The ice is getting thinner under me and you... So I let this song speak for my share of the load. For things I want to tell him but kept buried under piles of covering.



This is a great cover of the song I found on YouTube.
