Unbearably White Lyrics - Vampire Weekend

[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 through the bedroom 

And sat down all right 

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 

Photos 

[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 

Careless and cold 

And just unbearably white 

Call it a day 

Call it a night 

Careless and cold 

And just unbearably white 

Call it a day 

Call it a night 

Careless and cold 

And just unbearably white 

[Verse 3] 

Baby, I love you 

But that's not enough 

And pulling all the weight has been unbearably buff 

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
