The Ice Hotel

Let's you and me go away to The Ice Hotel The Carribean's all booked out And that's just as well Once I'd have been much keener On Barbados or Antigua But just now I think the arctic will suit us well Let's you and me go away To The Ice Hotel They've built it all with ice that's pure and clear The sofas the lobby Even the chandelier A thermostat guarantees A steady minus five 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 the future may hold This is no whim of the moment I want you to realise 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
