WE CLIMBED THE HILL FAR FROM THE CITY WALL
TO THE EMPTY MANSIONS AND THE BIG GRAVEYARD
IVE NOT FELT THIS STRANGE SINCE I WAS A KID
THAT DEEP DOWN FEELING OF THAT SUNDAY EMPTINESS
WE WATCHED THE SUMMER DUCKLINGS CLEAN THEIR WINGS
THEYLL SOON FIND OUT THE COLDNESS WINTER BRINGS
NO COMFORT COULD BE FOUND INSIDE HIS ARMS
WHEN MY HEAD WAS FULL OF THOUGHTS OF COLD WET GROUND
AND HE SAID IVE COME TO HATE YOUR HEART
CAUSE ITS LIKE THE ROLLING SEA
RESTLESS, HUNGRY AND ONLY CRUEL TO ME
AND ALL THE TINY SHOPS HAD CLOSED THEIR DOORS
AND TVS FLICKERED FROM INSIDE THE HOMES
AND CHURCH BELLS TOLD US TIME WAS PASSING ON
BUT WE WERE FAR FROM WHERE WE BOTH WERE FROM
MY HANDS WERE COLD THE BUS IT WOULD NOT COME
A CRAZY WOMAN TOLD US TO STAY WARM
BUT WARMTH IS SOMETHING I SHALL NEVER HAVE
AND MY FROZEN HEART'S MADE DAMN WELL SURE OF THAT
