All we ever wanted Was just to come in from the cold Come in, come in, come in, come in Come in, oh, come in from the cold Come in, come in We were so young Ooh, come in, come in, come in, come in Come in from the cold
We really thought, we had a purpose
We were so anxious, to achieve
We had hope, the world held promise
For a slave to liberty
Freely I slaved away for something better
And I was bought and sold And all I ever wanted
Was just to come in from the cold
Come in, come in, come in, come in Come in from the cold Come in, come in We were so sure Who's coming in Come in, come in, come in, come in Come in from the cold
I feel your legs under the table
Leaning into mine
I feel renewed, I feel disabled
By these bonfires in my spine
I don't know who the arsonist was Which incendiary soul
But all I ever wanted
Was just to come in from the cold Come in, come in, come in, come in Oh, come in from the cold, yea Come in, come in We were too far Please come in Come in, come in, come in, come in Come in from the cold
I am not some stone commission
Like a statue in a park
I am flesh and blood and vision
I am howling in the dark
Long blue shadows of the jackals
Are falling on a pay phone by the road
Oh, all they ever wanted Was just to come in from the cold
Come in, come in, come in, come in Come in from the cold Come in, come in I was so low Ohh, come in Come in, come in, come in, come in Come in from the cold
Is this just vulgar electricity
Is this the edifying fire It was so pure Does your smile's covert complicity
Debase as it admires
Just a flu with a temperature Are you just checkin' out your mojo
Or am I just fightin' off growing old
Just a high fever All I ever wanted
Was just to come in from the cold Come in, come in, come in, come in Come in, oh, come in from the cold Come in, come in It was so pure Please come in Come in, come in, come in, come in Come in from the cold
Ooh I know we never will be perfect Never entirely clear
When the moon shines We get hurt and we just panic
And we strike out, out of fear You were only being kind I fear the sentence of this solitude
Two hundred years on hold
For my loving crime Oh, and all we ever wanted
Was just to come in from the cold
Come in, come in, come in, come in Come in, come in from the cold Come in, come in When the moon shines Ohh, come in Come in, come in, come in, come in Come in from the cold
When I thought life had some meaning
Then I thought I had some choice
I was running blind
And I made some value judgments
In a self important voice
I was outta line But then absurdity came over me
And I longed to lose control
Into no mind Oh, all I ever wanted
Was just to come in from the cold
Come in, come in, come in, come in Oh, come in from the cold Come in, come in You were so kind Please come in Come in, come in, come in, come in So kind Come in from the cold Come in, come in Oh, come in, come in Come in, come in, come in, come in Come in from the cold Come in, come in I was so low Come in, come in Come in, come in, come in, come in Come in from the cold Come in, come in Please come in Come in, come in, come in, come in
[00:14.76]Back in 1957 we had to dance a foot apart [00:20.39] [00:23.26]And they hawk eyed us from the sidelines [00:25.51] [00:28.19]Holding their rulers, without a heart [00:31.32] [00:33.45]And so
