Arda & the Stolen Moon

Lyrics

The Duke of Icicle

Verse 1 
The Duke of Icicle
He lives in a faraway land
In a castle built with ice
In a place that’s forever white

The Duke of Icicle
He doesn’t get many guests
Instead he travels on his own
Accompanied by walruses and polar bears

The Duke of Icicle
Stays away from the fireplace
Keeping warm by candlelight
Besides he doesn’t want his mansion to melt

The Duke of Icicle
Loves his breakfast of snow on toast
It’s the perfect start to a day
Of wandering about and cutting fishing holes

Chorus
But everything’s changing the sun is blinding
(we are slowly drifting away)
Sweating profusely, the waters are rising
(we are slowly fading away)
He thought he was living in a safe place
(we are slowly drifting away)
Out of reach from human ways
(we are slowly fading away)

oh-oh-ohhh
oh-oh-ohhh



Verse 2
The Duke of Icicle
Is feeling quite ecstatic
Digging out his winter skates
Stashed away in the igloo attic

The Duke of Icicle
Can’t believe what’s going on
He thought his kingdom would carry on
And the blizzard would be just a winter song

Chorus
But everything’s changing the ice is cracking
(we are slowly drifting away)
The ocean is angry, the waters are rising
(we are slowly fading away)
He thought he was living in a safe place
(we are slowly drifting away)
Out of reach from human ways
(we are slowly fading away)

oh-oh-ohhh
oh-oh-ohhh

Verse 3
The Duke of Icicle
Takes one sad last look behind
At the only world he’s known
The mountains and valleys of white

The Duke of Icicle
Floats away on an island of ice
Getting warmer along the way
And disappears without leaving a trace



Chorus
Cause everything’s changing the ice is melting
(we are slowly drifting away)
The water is rising the coastline is drowning
(we are slowly losing the game)
Cause nature is vengeful and back she is fighting
(we are slowly drifting away)
It’s a game we can’t win, we're not that mighty
(we are slowly fading away)

oh-oh-ohhh
oh-oh-ohhh
oh-oh-ohhh 
oh-oh-ohhh
