The words were formed and spoken in relief
You know I'm so good at it
Always a song in your head
Our shadows stretched out in front of us
The new born sun burning away at our backs
Just like skating on broken ice
I'm watching my step
So let me do the pretending
I'm watching my step
To calm you down
Just happy that the moments had been filled
I'm treading lightly
This ship has sailed
Like the bars on the jail cell
With you
Our long morning walks
To control those anxieties
We'd make a clean break
Just like skating on broken ice
This ship has sailed
And we're pushing away
But you never bother to sing
I'm treading lightly
We will get better over time
Always unfailing, always lovely
I'd touch your racing heart
With you
To stop you from pacing around
So let me do all the worrying
