Songtexte Cold Cold Water - Acoustic Version - Mirah

I saddled up my pony right
And rode into the ghostly night
It was wide, wide open
Wide, wide open

I left the only home I knew
I stayed alive and I found you
Now I take you where the water's deep
And make the air you breathe so sweet

But is it not enough to be complete?
Please let me give you everything you need

Please

We found the way, we found the street
Directions sweat under the sheets
And I let you have it, let you have it
Oh but it can be a lonely place

Desire comes, desire fades
There's a bright one caught your fancy eye
It's okay so long as you stay mine

But I'm so number one that it's a shame
A shame that you let other numbers in the game, hey
Now I suffer for your hungry eye
Oh why must it see more than mine?
It's the light you're after
'Cause light moves faster

But when I ride again into the night
My torch will shoot flames strong and bright
And my absence will remind you
Of how tough it is to be in love
But it's not what I think, it's what you say
Hey, hey, and it works great for you to have your way
Hey, hey

Oh the west can be a desperate place
You search all day for just a taste
Of the cold, cold water
Cold, cold water

And if you think I'm gone too long
Listen, the sky will sing this song
As it burns up all the memories
That flow like water out of me
