“Cold”

Looking back at me I see
That I never really got it right
I never stopped to think of you
I’m always wrapped up in
Things I cannot win
You are the antidote that gets me by
Something strong
Like a drug that gets me high

What I really meant to say
Is I’m sorry for the way I am
I never meant to be so cold 

To you I’m sorry about all the lies
Maybe in a different light
You could see me stand on my own again
Cause now i can see
You were the antidote that got me by
Something strong like a drug that got me high

I never meant to be so cold

I never really wanted you to see
The screwed up side of me that I keep
Locked inside of me so deep
It always seems to get to me
I never really wanted you to go
So many things you should have known
I guess for me theres just no hope
I never meant to be so cold

Sometimes the way that you act makes me wonder,
What I am to you,
Sometimes I can’t stand the way that I’m acting,
To be part of the things you do,
Often I’ve asked you for too much of your time,
I’ve been stealing,
And when I dream of the fear that you’re leaving,
I reach out,
Oh baby then you,
Mmmm, oh yeah…

So many times have I asked you to tell me,
That I’m your girl,
Time after time I have needed a reason,
Just to get inside your world,
So many times have I asked you to ask me,
How it feels to love,
And when its love seems the only conclusion,
That I’m guilty of,
Oh baby then you,
Mmmm, oh yeah…

Put your loving arms around me,
And you whisper to me when you,
Put your loving arms around me,
And inside your arms I’m burning,
Put your loving arms around me,
And you whisper to me when you,
Put your loving arms around me,
And inside your arms I’m burning,
I’m burning,
Inside your arms I’m burning,
Yeah burning…
