[Intro | Piano Solo | Distant Wind | Intimate | Cold] [Verse 1 | Female Voice 1 | Opera-like | Soft Whisper | Intimate | No Drums] I learned to dream before I learned to sing My grandfather taught me how to climb to the sky But not how to stop I keep searching for his shadow in the clouds But the sky is wide I just know how to glide I don't know how to rest I keep singing to see my wings spread In the empty air of high altitude [INTERRUPTION — Intimate Pause] [Verse 2 | Female Voice 2 | Church Choir Tone | Cold | No Drums] I learned to wait before I learned to move My grandmother led me to turn the ice into music To hold with words, not open arms They call me cold, but I don't freeze to hurt I do not break apart I can see the warmth passing by The cold is the language I know Frozen snowflakes melting with the warmth of my heart I carry the cold that holds things together [Pre-Chorus | Both Female Voices | Acoustic Guitar Enters | Building] You chase the sky I hold the earth You reach for the stars I reach for you We are not the same But we are not apart [Chorus | Both Female Voices | Piano | Acoustic Guitar | Soft Drums | First Climax] Sky and ice We are the same You soar in the sky I am a soft winter wind But together we thrive I am the sky You are the ice We share the same space [crowd cheering soft] [INTERRUPTION — Most Intimate Moment] [Bridge | Both Female Voices | Stripped | Piano Only | Most Intimate] I will be your first snow I will be your clear blue sky I will hold you when you fall I will be the air you breathe I don't need to fly alone You don't need to stay still We are not the same But we are not so far apart [acoustic guitar enters] [soft drums build] [Outro | Both Female Voices | Piano | Acoustic Guitar | Fading] We are sky and ice Holding each other Where the sky meets the ice And the ice reflects the sky [guitar fade] [piano fade] [silence]
