The ice is getting thinner

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 bury 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 spring arrived
We were taken by surprise when the flows under our feet
Led into the sea
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.
That 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.
