Cold Night Lyrics

I might die before I ever learn the meaning of your love

The truth is right before my eyes

But I'll be looking just above

You could hold my hand and spell it just a letter at a time

I'll be loving oh so freely on your dime

I slip into a meditation

With the help of a bad friend

Wish I could get here on my own

But I get stuck before the bend

And I believe it may be possible

For one who isn't me

If i were born as someone wise enough to see

It's a cold cold night

Normally he holds me tight

Says he needs some space, guess that's alright

But It's a cold cold night

The dust upon my old guitar has caught my eye once more

She used to have something to say

Something she was living for

Now she's wrapped up in the story that I sold her on so well

There ain't no song to sing, not if that song don't sell

Oh it's a cold cold night

At least I have the words to write

And hope now that the futures bright

But It's a cold cold night

There's a girl who sits at home

Her life stuck up on the shelf

And I wonder if I judge her cause I recognize myself

In old patterns that I write off as someone no longer me

But in the mirror she is all I ever see

Oh it's a cold cold night

She's got a million tears to cry

My eyes are feeling awfully dry

On this cold cold night
