Dress Warm
It’s cold outside, as well as in here.
So cold—so cold that I fear
it will set into my bones, never to let go,
never to release me, never to let me know
of the warmth inside—the warmth you provide
for me when you say that you love me.
It’s cold outside, as well as in here.
So cold—so cold—I wish you were near
me again so that I’m not alone
sitting by myself in what used to be our home
in the days when you said
that you loved me.
It’s cold outside, as well as in here.
So cold—so cold that if I shed a tear
it would freeze on my cheek as if a crystal
teardrop frozen in time as the fierce wind does whistle
through my ears
and my mind.
It’s cold outside, as well as in here.
So cold—so cold that with each passing year
I realize you’re gone, you did part
from my life, but never from my heart
where you’ll stay forever, but dress warm my dear
for it’s cold outside as well as in here.
