Lyrics The Ice Hotel - Live - Stacey Kent

Breakfast on the Morning Tram
Let′s you and me go away to The Ice Hotel ãâ¬â¬
The Carribean's all booked out ãâ¬â¬
And that′s just as well ãâ¬â¬
Once I'd have been much keener ãâ¬â¬
On Barbados or Antigua ãâ¬â¬
But just now I think the arctic will suit us well ãâ¬â¬
Let's you and me go away to The Ice Hotel ãâ¬â¬

They′ve built it all with ice that′s pure and clear ãâ¬â¬
The sofas, the lobby ãâ¬â¬
Even the chandelier
A thermostat guarantees A steady minus five degrees
What other place could serve our needs so well ãâ¬â¬
Let's you and me go away to the Ice Hotel ãâ¬â¬
Romantic places ãâ¬â¬
Like Verona or Paris ãâ¬â¬
They′ll always lead you astray ãâ¬â¬
You'd have to be a novice ãâ¬â¬
To ever trust Venice ãâ¬â¬
And those dreamy waterways ãâ¬â¬
And what the tropics can do ãâ¬â¬
I know only too well
So, let′s you and me go away to the Ice Hotel ãâ¬â¬
Heavy clothing at all times ãâ¬â¬
Is the expected norm ãâ¬â¬
Even candlelight at dinner

Is considered too dangerously warm ãâ¬â¬
And when the time comes for us to sleep ãâ¬â¬
We'll spread out our reindeer fleece ãâ¬â¬
And curl up together ãâ¬â¬
On an ice block carved for two
But then in the morning ãâ¬â¬
Provided we′ve made it through ââ¬Â¦
We'll step out together ãâ¬â¬
To watch the sun rise over ãâ¬â¬
That vast expanse of cold ãâ¬â¬
And who knows if we're lucky ãâ¬â¬
We may find ourselves talking ãâ¬â¬
Of what future may hold ãâ¬â¬
This is no whim of the moment
I want you to realize ãâ¬â¬
Let′s go away to that palace made of ice ãâ¬â¬

Let′s you and me go away to the ice hotel ãâ¬â¬
The Bahamas are all booked out ãâ¬â¬
And that's just as well ãâ¬â¬
I don′t think we're quite ready ãâ¬â¬
For Hawaii of Tahiti ãâ¬â¬
And we will be ãâ¬â¬
Only time will tell ãâ¬â¬
Let′s you and me go away to The Ice Hotel
