It's cold outside
And the paint's peeling off of my walls
There's a man outside
In a long coat, gray hat, smoking a cigarette Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh Now the light fades out
And I'm only wondering what I'm doing in a room like this
There's a knock on the door
And just for a second I thought I remembered you Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh So now I'm alone
Now I can think for myself
About little deals and S.U.'s
And things that I just don't understand Like a white lie that night
Or a slight touch at times
I don't think it meant anything to you Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh Oh oh oh
Oh oh So I open the door
It's the friend that I'd left in the hallway
"Please sit down"
A candle lit a shadow on a wall near the bed Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh You know I hate to ask
(But are friends electric?)
Only mine's broke down
And now I've no one to love Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh So I find out your reason
For the phone calls and smiles
And it hurts and I'm lonely
And I should never have tried And I missed you tonight
So it's time to leave
You see this means everything to me Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh Oh oh oh
Oh oh
