Your line was so dead Every time that I called it was a kick in the head But I tried to be calm I swear to you, baby, you didn’t know what you’d done And then the moon shed its shell Some crescent effervescent light shivered and fell to my feet, from the sky I ask too many questions that get no, get no reply
Chorus: It’s too cold to snow, I don’t feel my hands And my blood is so slow in my veins I’m too tired to cry And the earth is so still It’s too cold to snow but I hope it will
Prone on the floor Couldn’t think any less, couldn’t drink any more Sleep was a prize And I died a small death when I opened my eyes And I ceased to exist from the moment we met or the moment we kissed You know, I dare you to agree That if you treat me this way then you cannot, you cannot love me
(Chorus)
Now you’re here in your shame You’re sorry and so on, I’m glad that you came But I know just like you That I will forgive you whatever you do And I know just as well That you’ve caused me less pain than I’ve caused to myself With my glass to my lips I’m thinking maybe, maybe it doesn’t get better than this
