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 wintery grave 
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 ever 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 
And it saddens me to say 
What we both knew was [bad word] 
That the ice was getting thinner 
Under me and you 

The ice was getting thinner 
Under me and you
