Colder by the Minute

Lyrics
Chorus: Born of cold and winter air The storm insider her grew The skies closed in, the wind picked up Her mind grew dark, the cold wind blew

Hans: I charge Queen Elsa of Arendelle with treason, and sentence her to death. ''Elsa: What?! No!''

Chorus: Nothing could contain The tempest in her brain

And the storm raged on And they were ravaged by the wrath of snow And the wind blew fear And the storm ???

Colder by the minute Colder by the minute

Anna: Keep walking, Anna, don't stop, don't rest He's out here somewhere I can feel the ice in my chest In my heart, I don't care

I've got to reach you through the storm somehow Because the one thing that can save me now Is your love

Kristoff: Anna... Anna: True love Kristoff: Where are you?

Chorus: Colder by the minute Colder by the minute

Elsa: Can't run, can't stop, can't breathe, can't live, and I can't die Hans: Elsa, listen! Elsa: Can't hope to fix this mess, yet somehow still I have to try Hans: Please surrender! Elsa: Conceal, don't feel. Don't feel. Get back into the cage Hans: End this winter! Elsa: I've unleashed a monster. I cannot stop the monster! Hans: And no harm will come to you

Chorus: And the north wind howled And they were trapped within the walls of white

Anna: Don't give into the ice (Kristoff: Anna...) Don't give into the cold

Kristoff: If you can hear my voice, hold on Anna Anna: True love

Elsa: I can't! Hans: Elsa!

Chorus: And the storm raged on And nature tore the world apart And all was lost To the frozen heart

Anna: Kristoff... Kristoff: Anna... Elsa: Monster... Hans: Elsa...

Chorus: Colder by the minute Colder by the minute

''Hans: Elsa! You can't run from this.'' ''Elsa: Where is my sister? Where is Anna?'' ''Hans: Anna? She returned from the mountain weak and cold. You froze her heart.'' Elsa: No. ''Hans: I tried to save her, but it was too late. Her skin was ice, her hair turned white. Your sister is dead, because of you.''

Chorus: And the wind blew soft And in her grief the storm stood still
