Cold Winter Night

Intro

Mm

Mm-hmm

Cold coming down

Verse 1

Frost on the window pane

My breath makes little clouds

Nobody on the street tonight

Just the hum of distant plows

I keep both hands inside my sleeves

The radiator knocks and sighs

Somewhere past the frozen river

The whole town shuts its eyes

Chorus

It's a cold winter night

And I'm walking it alone

It's a cold winter night

Turning every step to stone

I would trade the stars above

For a voice to call my own

On a cold winter night

Verse 2

Boots sink in the fresh snow

Lamps are dim and few

I pass the shuttered corner store

Where we used to stop for two

Ice has claimed the fire escape

The rooftops all wear white

And every door I knock upon

Keeps its secrets tight

Chorus

It's a cold winter night

And I'm walking it alone

It's a cold winter night

Turning every step to stone

I would trade the stars above

For a voice to call my own

On a cold winter night

Bridge

Maybe spring is hiding

Maybe spring is shy

Maybe I'll stop waiting

Maybe I'll stop asking why

Chorus

It's a cold winter night

And I'm walking it alone

It's a cold winter night

Turning every step to stone

I would trade the stars above

For a voice to call my own

On a cold winter night

Outro

Mm

Cold coming down

Mm-hmm
