The Ice Hotel (Bonus Track)

Let's you and me go away to the Ice Hotel

The Caribbean's all booked out and it's just as well

While I'd have been much keener on Barbados and Antigua

But just now I think the arctic will suit us well

Let's you and me go away to the Ice Hotel

We've built it all with ice that's pure and clear

The sofas the lobby even the chandelier

A thermostat guarantees a steady minus 5 degrees

What other place could serve our needs so well

Let's you and me go away to the Ice Hotel

Romantic places like Verona or Paris they'll always lead you astray

You'd have to be a novice to ever trust Venice and those dreamy waterways

And what the tropics can do I know only too well

So let's you and me go away to the Ice Hotel

Heavy clothing at all times is the expected norm

Even candlelight at dinner is considered too dangerously warm

And when the time comes for us to sleep

We'll spread out our reindeer fleece and curl up together

On an ice block carved for two but then in the morning

Provided we've made it through

We'll step out together to watch the sun rise over

That vast expanse of cold and who knows if we're lucky

We may find ourselves talking of what our future may hold

This is no whim of the moment I want you to realize

Let's go away to that palace made of ice

Let's you and me go away to the Ice Hotel

The Bahamas are all booked out and that's just as well

I don't think we're quite ready for Hawaii or Tahiti

And when we will be only time will tell

Let's you and me go away to the Ice Hotel
