lyrics

The snow was softly falling as we walked along the street
To the centre of the city where the shopping districts meet
And I reached out for your hand before I thought about the price

Our fingers locked together as our hands began to numb
And I knew that in that moment you were underneath my thumb
But the fire in your eyes was not enough to melt the ice

And deep beneath the frozen arctic of a thousand unshed tears
Is a fire that hasn't burned bright for so many years
And sometimes I think that maybe I could set that fire alight
But the spring will not come early, so we lie here in the winter of our discontent

Sometimes I think that I should just give up and walk away
Then I see a light inside your eyes that makes me want to stay
And I feel the weight of an ice age being lifted off of me

And as the snow began to melt, our heart began to do the same
And we stopped our pointing fingers and trying to pass the blame
And we poured our hearts out as the waitress poured our coffee

And deep beneath the frozen arctic of a thousand unshed tears
Is a fire that hasn't burned bright for so many years
And sometimes I think that maybe I could set that fire alight
But the spring will not come early, so we lie here in the winter of our discontent

And deep beneath the frozen arctic of a thousand unshed tears
Is a fire that hasn't burned bright for so many years
And sometimes I think that maybe I could set that fire alight
But the spring will not come early, so we lie here in the winter of our discontent

Under that ice, under that snow
Lies the heart that once so well I used to know
Under that ice, under the frost
Lie the reminders of the things that we have lost

What kind of ice age froze your soul?
I swear that thawing it out is my goal
Under a glacier, barely alive
Love waits for the promise of spring to arrive…
