Unbearably White - Vampire Weekend

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 floe

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

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

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

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

Call it a day, call it a night

Callous and cold and just unbearably white

Call it a day, call it a night

Callous and cold and just unbearably white

Call it a day, call it a night

Callous and cold and just unbearably white

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

Call it a day, call it a night

Callous and cold and just unbearably white

Call it a day, call it a night
