Standing In the Cold

I wait, for you, in dusky avenues My skin, soaked through, the tree you nailed me to You wanted my heart, for its little worth I was half your age, and thought we were in love Then I found your car, it was already burnt Your eyes stung like stained-glass windows But you had my soul Standing in the cold Trying to get back home Frozen to the bone of wanting to know Of wanting to know We write, all night, make out in hotel light Your touch, and your kiss, parrots every note of this You wanted my heart, for its little worth I was half your age, and I thought we were in love Then I found your car, it was already burnt Your eyes stung like stained-glass windows, But you had my soul Standing in the cold Trying to get back home Frozen to the bone of wanting to know (Guitar solo) I wait, for you, in dusky avenues My skin, soaked through, the tree you nailed me to You wanted my heart, for its little worth I was half your age, and I thought we were in love Then I found your car, it was already burnt It was covered in rust Someone got there first I was running away, Cos I thought we were in love. Then I saw your eyes But they said it all Standing in the cold Trying to get back home Frozen to the bone, of wanting to know, Why I'm screaming in the dark, and my boyfriend won't Call, Standing in the cold, I wanted to know, I wanted to know
