The Coldest Night

Well the trees were shaking

in the terrible wind

And my face would have cracked

if I'd tried to grin

It was the coldest night

I've ever spent outside

the frost was biting like ahungry hound

and my feet were so numb

I couldn't feel the ground

It was the coldest night

I've ever spent outside

And I freeze,

you don't know what it's like

To be left all alone in the cold

On my knees

I'd go down on my knees

for a moment or two back at home

Still I walked on and on and on

Not really going any place

Just trying to keep me warm

It was the coldest night

I've ever spent outside

It near drove me insane

as the rain tapped my brain

Then fell to the floor and

ran down the drain

It was the coldest night

I've ever spent ouside

And I freeze,

you don't know what it's like

To be left all alone in the cold

On my knees

I'd go down on my knees

for a moment or two back at home

Well if I ain't dead well

this sure feels like hell

And after all how can you tell

It was the coldest night

I've ever spent outside

It was hard to believe when

I woke up in a sweat

That I was only dreaming

of that cruel cold and wet

It was the coldest night

I've ever spent outside

And I freeze,

you don't know what it's like

To be left all alone in the cold

On my knees

I'd go down on my knees

for a moment or two back at home

In my bed rest my head where

I'm cosy and warm
