lyrics

She’s a cold woman to me
She’s a cold woman to me

And I cry out, and I hope someday she knows
That I just couldn’t take the cold,
And I cry out, and I hope she knows someday
That I just couldn’t take the cold and rain

My body feels weak
I mumble up my words
That house it still does creak,
But I found solace in the birds

I feel empty
Everytime she looks away
But I don’t see
Just how she gets herself through the day

I feel empty
‘Cause I know that smile ain’t for me
And I don’t know
Just how much love she has but can’t show

Was I useless
Everytime you shut the door?
Or was it all the stress
Of feigning joy when there was no more?

If I promise
To be a better man,
Would you respect me?
If not, I can understand

She’s a cold woman to me
She’s a cold woman to me

I was like a child,
swinging round your doorway
Hoping one glance or one minute more
you’d hold my gaze

I was a fool,
blistered and howling at the moon
I couldn't think,
Past the lupins in your garden
When the ground would sink,
To gulp that strong cedar breath in the morning

Spinal tapped pines,
Wipe the angel dust from my eyes
At dawn, I can’t remember
The last time I swung ‘round in your embers

When you told me
‘Hush Child, notice the hours of peace’
But now your hands are
inconclusive in their reach

And I feel like I’m nothing more to you
And I feel like I’m more of a burden than a tool
To fix those desert stares you give me

And I cry out, and I hope she knows someday,
That I just couldn’t take the cold and rain
And I cry out, and I hope someday she knows
That I just couldn’t take the cold

She’s a cold woman to me
She’s a cold woman to me
