Cold Sweat Lyrics

It could happen any day, the little things you say that makes me wanna stay

Long enough so when our bodies start to sway I can say, how's your day

There's a movement next to me And I wonder what she dreams one day to be

And not to settle for her mediocrity Oh, darling, she takes honey in her tea

I could offer you a shoulder It's just a punchline said before

How come, you're walking out the door

It's a cold sweat underneath her dress Clutching at the match that lights her cigarette

Though she's not done yet, drops it on the street Cause she likes to keep her lipstick wet

I shall march through history There's a show at nine tonight on RTE

Telling stories of something called MTV Oh, darling, come spend a little time with me

I need someone I can talk to Not to understand or to ask where it began

You gotta hold on me These days I struggle to know reality

I couldn't care less about your philosophy I'm not gonna lie to you, it bores me

I can make it on my own And I've got through harder shit than you have on your throne

So dust off a petticoat and put your doctor's on Oh, darling, won't you help me when this world is gone

Gone wrong, come on back home where you belong

All my dreams come back to me When she's barking at the army on her way to New Orleans

With a pocket of silver

A carnival queen Oh, well, she's gone

Oh, well, she's gone
