|
It was cold in the kitchen and the lights were low |
|
As winter slowly stumbled home |
|
The air felt different and it started to show |
|
As every breath resembled smoke |
|
I was short of opinions and I wanted to know |
|
If you'd still be here tomorrow |
|
'Cause it was cold in the kitchen and the lights were low |
|
As winter wrapped around Chicago |
|
The TV's on too much |
|
And I don't ever think enough |
|
About the things that matter most |
|
And what could make me old |
|
And there's no argument |
|
For wasting time much better spent |
|
Complacently replacing |
|
A melody with smoke |
|
I don't expect a smile when I get home |
|
The blankets that I stole should keep you warm |
|
I hope you can never find to fill the hole |
|
I'm futher from the source to feel the floor |
|
It was cold in the kitchen and the lights were low |
|
As winter slowly stumbled home |
|
The air felt different and it started to show |
|
As every breath resembled smoke |
|
I was short of opinions and I wanted to know |
|
If you'd still be here tomorrow |
|
'Cause it was cold in the kitchen and the lights were low |
|
As winter wrapped around Chicago |
|
The TV's on too much |
|
And I don't ever think enough |
|
About the things that matter most |
|
And what could make me old |
|
And there's no argument |
|
For wasting time much better spent |
|
Complacently replacing |
|
A melody with smoke |
