The Guy Who Came In From The Cold Lyrics by Jr. Gone Wild

Simple Little Wish

1995

[Verse 1]
Covered in ticker tape and welcome home tears
And all the hugs he hates dispel his fears
He made it, and the colours were truly flying
Celebrate to be alive
He knows he lived to see thirty-five
He has work to do now, and he knows it
[Chorus]
The guy who came in from the cold
The guy who came in from the cold
The guy who came in, the guy who came in from the cold
[Verse 2]
Bob Dylan taught him how to think, and
Pete Townshеnd taught him how to drink
And his father dropped him off therе
Somewhere out there on his ledge
His punk-rock demons keep him on the edge
His fears these days make his tales invalid
[Chorus]
The guy who came in from the cold
The guy who came in from the cold
The guy who came in, the guy who came in from the cold
[Post-Chorus]
Somewhere in the joy of trading roles
Just when the way of the buffalo
[?] was imagining one's dreams
So we are vanquished, so we are redeemed
[Verse 3]
And it’s too easy to blame society
He seeks justice discreetly
There's no doubt in his mind that one day he will have it
In for a penny, in for a pound
He can take his shots, he's been around
One things for sure, he didn’t grow up spoiled
[Chorus]
The guy who came in from the cold
The guy who came in from the cold
The guy who came in, the guy who came in from the cold
[Post-Chorus]
Somewhere in the joy of trading roles
Just when the way of the buffalo
[?] was imagining one's dreams
So we are vanquished, so we are redeemed
Somewhere in the joy of trading roles
Just when the way of the buffalo
[?] was imagining one's dreams
So we are vanquished, so we are redeemed
[Verse 4]
Anyways, his dreams are like combat gear
Like a unicorn the whole damn year
If the ship comes in, he'll be ready
[Chorus]
The guy who came in from the cold
The guy who came in from the cold
The guy who came in, the guy who came in from the cold
The guy who came in from the cold
The guy who came in from the cold
The guy who came in, the guy who came in from the cold
