Original Songs by Kent Newsome

Cold All the Time


The weather outside is sunny and clear
So why is it always freezing in here
I feel trapped, frozen in my tracks
A victim of your frosty attacks
There's a snowdrift on your shoulder
And the room gets colder and colder

Why can't I get warm
I just shiver and shake
Trying to make you love me
Was such a foolish mistake

Chorus:
It's summertime
And you're leaving me behind
It's ninety degrees outside
But I'm cold all the time
Cold all the time

I've got the heat turned as high as it goes
And I'm wearing 'bout four layers of clothes
I just burned the last of our wood
But nothing I do does any good
Your icy barbs still find their mark
While the landscape turns frigid and stark

I'm caught in a storm
Blinded by snow and sleet
Should I try to keep moving
Or lay down and go to sleep

Chorus:
It's summertime
And you're leaving me behind
It's ninety degrees outside
But I'm cold all the time
Cold all the time

Bridge:
I could build an igloo with your words
Every harsh word you say to me hurts
When did the air around here begin to cool
When did I become a burden to you

Chorus:
It's summertime
And you're leaving me behind
It's ninety degrees outside
But I'm cold all the time
Cold all the time
