Vampire Weekend - Unbearably White lyrics

[Verse 1] Baby, I love you But that’s not enough And pulling away has been unbearably buff I ran up the mountain Out of your sight The snow on the peak was just unbearably white The city was freezing An elegant flow The wind at the doorway was unbearably cold You walked to the bedroom And sat down to write The page in your notebook was unbearably white [Chorus] There’s an avalanche coming Don’t cover your eyes It’s what you thought that you wanted It’s still a surprise It’s hard on the body It’s hard on the mind To learn what kept us together, darling Is what kept us alive [Verse 2] Sooner or later The story gets told To tell it myself would be unbearably bold Presented with darkness We turn to the light Could’ve been smart, we’re just unbearably bright [Chorus] There’s an avalanche coming Don’t cover your eyes It’s what you thought that you wanted It’s still a surprise It’s hard on the body It’s hard on the mind To learn what kept us together, darling Is what kept us alive [Bridge] Call it a day Call it a night Calloused and cold And just unbearably white Call it a day Call it a night Calloused and cold And just unbearably white Call it a day Call it a night Calloused and cold And just unbearably white [Verse 3] Baby, I love you But that’s not enough And pulling away has been unbearably rough I ran up the mountain Out of your sight The snow on the peak was just unbearably white [Outro] Call it a day Call it a night Careless and cold And just unbearably white Call it a day Call it a night
