On the Ice

Baby tells me that we're starting to change
Into a version of us
That cannot be erased

Every time we meet, it's turning to be
Cliché
Romance is just a phase
Where we set the sun
In the nighttime rain

Then it hits
As it slides
Illuminates you in all white

Never thought we'd reach the time
When it seems we're either on the ice
On the ice
On the ice
For a while
This time

Every word she keeps is turning to be
So vague
Beside her, I'm a stranger
Tomorrow, I'm a saint

Twenty thousand years of being afraid to say
"Do fools rush in the same?"
And play out our lives
Set in slow fade

Then it hits
As we slide
Illuminates me
In all white

I see her now
Beneath the light
You never seem to
Quite hold tight

Then it hits
As we slide
A serenade
In holy fire

Never thought we'd reach the time
When it seems we're always on the ice

On the ice
On the ice
For a while
This time

On the ice
On the ice
For a while
This time
