Have you seen a flame when it comes to life?
|
It was always waitin', it just needed a strike.
|
Have you got a match? 'Cause I'm lookin' to be lit.
|
Open up your stash, I'm a kerosene lamp.
|
|
I thought I told you I would need more than your average affection.
|
|
So, why? Tell me, why should I ever be cold in the night?
|
It just isn't right. Oh, why should I be cold?
|
I'm too cold.
|
|
Across this moonlit room, I see the silhouette of a man
|
sleepin' all alone on the edge of the bed.
|
But, I am right here. Are you really that tired?
|
Now, would it really be so hard to come to my side?
|
|
Oh, I thought I told you I would need more than just sometime attention.
|
|
Why? Tell me, why should I ever be cold in the night?
|
It just isn't right. Oh, why should I be cold?
|
Yeah, I'm too cold.
|
|
Has it been too long, am I just an old shoe?
|
When the trends are all gone, am I your go-to?
|
What did you see when you brought me in from the storm?
|
Our bed used to be so warm.
|
|
So, why? Tell me, why should I ever be cold in the night?
|
It just isn't right. Oh, why should I be cold?
|
Yeah, it's too cold.
|
|
Why should I ever be cold? Never be cold.
