Standing In The Cold Lyrics

I wait, for you, in dusky avenues
My skin, soaked through, the tree you knelt me to,

You wanted my heart, for its little work,
I was half your age, and I thought we were in love,
Then I found your car, it was already burnt,
Your eyes from a stained glass window,

But you had my soul,
Standing in the cold,
Trying to get back home,
Frozen to the bone,
I wanted to know,
I wanted to know,

We ride, all night, make out in motel lights,
Your touch, and your kiss, powered even through our fears,

You wanted my heart, for its little work,
I was half your age, and I thought we were in love,
Then I found your car, it was already burnt.
Your eyes from a stained glass window,

But you had my soul,
Standing in the cold,
Trying to get back home,
Frozen to the bone,
I wanted to know,
I wanted to know,


I wait, for you, in dusky avenues,
My skin, soaked through, the tree you knelt me to,

You wanted my heart, for its little work,
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 their first,

I was running away,
Because I thought we were in love,

Then I saw your eyes, but they said it in awe,
Standing in the cold,
Trying to get back home,
Frozen to the bone,
I wanted to know,
Why I'm screaming in the dark,
My boyfriend won't call,
Standing in the cold,
I wanted to know,
I wanted to know.
