Cold Lyrics by James Blunt

The Stars Beneath My Feet (2004 - 2021)

2019

[Verse 1]
It’s been lonely
Tryna get your attention from a thousand miles away
And you know me
Always overthinking the worst possibilities
Yeah, we both know
In between you and me, there’s an ocean
Castaway in a sea and it’s frozen
I’m exposed, can’t you see? All I need is a little warmth

[Chorus]
Without your arms around me, without you on my skin
Without you on my body, I’m sorry, I’m sorry
I don’t mean to be desperate or pretend that I’m not torn
But I don’t want to let go of the things that keep me warm
Without you, I’m just cold

[Verse 2]
I built a little boat
With a sail from the memories I’ve been collecting
And I’ll hold out
For the wind to blow me, take me home the whole way, in your direction
Yeah, we both know
In between you and me, there’s an ocean
And I’m just trying to get a little closer
Pull me in, 'cause I’m here, and all I need is little warmth

[Chorus]
Without your arms around me, without you on my skin
Without you on my body, I’m sorry, I’m sorry
I don’t mean to be desperate or pretend that I’m not torn
But I don’t want to let go of the things that keep me warm
Without you, I’m just cold
Without you, I’m just cold

[Bridge]
And I need a little fire and you’re my gasoline
Light me up, I’m burning with all these things I feel
I’ll always hold this flame for you but it’s naked on the breeze
So let me in, don’t lock me out, don't cast me out to sea

[Chorus]
Without your arms around me, without you on my skin
Without you on my body, I’m sorry, I’m sorry
I don’t mean to be desperate or pretend that I’m not torn
But I don’t want to let go of the things that keep me warm
Without you, I’m just cold
Without you, I’m just cold
