The Drones - Cold and Sober lyrics
[The Drones - Cold and Sober lyrics]
It's a cold and sober
Night time over me, my roof and blanket
I'm looking at you
Another cold and sober
Night time over me, my roof and blanket
Looking at you
You're laid up here on my bed
I'm looking out the window at the moon
I says "what you thinking?
Are you swimming or you sinking?
Lord, I see it in your eyes
Something's aim is true"
She says "It ain't sink or swim
It ain't her in the drink
It's the other way round
And the lack of it all right now
On account of you"
Those are the reasons
That is the reason Lord
She never tell me nothing
I don't mind, that's alright
Ain't nothing, just half the truth
The first time I met you I knew
One taste meant I was through
It's a cold and sober night time over you
Another cold and sober night time over you
And the night time slides
And the morning light comes a-shining
Through all the bottles laying
Drained and empty in resignation round you
At you asleep on my bed
And I remember you said
"Just this time will be alright
But ain't nothing gonna be the same again
Friend"
Yeah, well it's a cold and
Sober night time over you
Over you, over you, over you, over you
And in lieu of your coldness, Lord
Or something that someone stole
Someone told me being sober
Might have this kind of effect on you
Night time over me, my roof and blanket
I'm looking at you
Another cold and sober
Night time over me, my roof and blanket
Looking at you
You're laid up here on my bed
I'm looking out the window at the moon
I says "what you thinking?
Are you swimming or you sinking?
Lord, I see it in your eyes
Something's aim is true"
She says "It ain't sink or swim
It ain't her in the drink
It's the other way round
And the lack of it all right now
On account of you"
Those are the reasons
That is the reason Lord
She never tell me nothing
I don't mind, that's alright
Ain't nothing, just half the truth
The first time I met you I knew
One taste meant I was through
It's a cold and sober night time over you
Another cold and sober night time over you
And the night time slides
And the morning light comes a-shining
Through all the bottles laying
Drained and empty in resignation round you
At you asleep on my bed
And I remember you said
"Just this time will be alright
But ain't nothing gonna be the same again
Friend"
Yeah, well it's a cold and
Sober night time over you
Over you, over you, over you, over you
And in lieu of your coldness, Lord
Or something that someone stole
Someone told me being sober
Might have this kind of effect on you
