Bruce Cockburn - The Coldest Night of the Year lyrics
[Bruce Cockburn - The Coldest Night of the Year lyrics]
I was up all night socializing
Trying to keep the latent
Depression from crystalizing
Now the sun is lurking just
Behind the Scarborough horizon
And you're not even here
On the coldest night of the year
I took in Yonge Street at a glance
Heard the punkers playing
Watched the bikers dance
Everybody wishing they could go to
The south of France and you're not even here
On the coldest night of the year
Hey look at me now see the shape I'm in
It's taken me so long to catch
On to what's going on inside this skin
When two lovers really love
There's nothing there
But this suddenly compact universe
Of skin and breath and hair
I watched the all night TV show
In the all night bar
I drove all the people home
I was the one with the car
Now I'm sitting here alone and sleepless
And wondering where you are
And wishing you were here
On the coldest night of the year
Now I'm sitting here alone and sleepless
And wondering where you are
And wishing you were here
On the coldest night of the year
Trying to keep the latent
Depression from crystalizing
Now the sun is lurking just
Behind the Scarborough horizon
And you're not even here
On the coldest night of the year
I took in Yonge Street at a glance
Heard the punkers playing
Watched the bikers dance
Everybody wishing they could go to
The south of France and you're not even here
On the coldest night of the year
Hey look at me now see the shape I'm in
It's taken me so long to catch
On to what's going on inside this skin
When two lovers really love
There's nothing there
But this suddenly compact universe
Of skin and breath and hair
I watched the all night TV show
In the all night bar
I drove all the people home
I was the one with the car
Now I'm sitting here alone and sleepless
And wondering where you are
And wishing you were here
On the coldest night of the year
Now I'm sitting here alone and sleepless
And wondering where you are
And wishing you were here
On the coldest night of the year
