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