| If I could I would | |
| I'd pull your ribs apart | |
| Like the bars on the jail cell | |
| We'd make a clean break | |
| I'd touch your racing heart | |
| To control those anxieties | |
| To calm you down | |
| To stop you from pacing around | |
| So let me do all the worrying | |
| You know I'm so good at it | |
| Just like skating on broken ice with you | |
| I'm treading lightly | |
| I'm watching my step | |
| This ship has sailed | |
| Our long morning walks | |
| Our shadows strateched out in front of us | |
| The new born sun buring away at our backs | |
| The words were formed and spoken in relief | |
| Just happy that the moments had been filled | |
| So let me do the pretending | |
| We will get better over time | |
| Just like skating on broken ice with you | |
| I'm treading lightly | |
| I'm watching my step | |
| This ship has sailed and we're pushing away | |
| Always a song in your head | |
| Always unfailing, always lovely | |
| But you never bother to sing | |
| No, you never bothered to sing | |
| It's like skating on broken ice with you... |
