Cold and Sober Lyrics by The Drones

Havilah

0

It's a cold and sober
Night time over me, my roof and blanket
I'm looking at you

Another cold and sober
Night time over me, my roof and blanket
Looking at you

You're laid up here on my bed
I'm looking out the window at the moon
I says "what you thinking?
Are you swimming or you sinking?
Lord, I see it in your eyes
Something's aim is true"

She says "It ain't sink or swim
It ain't her in the drink
It's the other way round
And the lack of it all right now
On account of you"

Those are the reasons
That is the reason Lord
She never tell me nothing
I don't mind, that's alright
Ain't nothing, just half the truth

[Chorus]
The first time I met you I knew
One taste meant I was through
It's a cold and sober night time over you
Another cold and sober night time over you

And the night time slides
And the morning light comes a-shining
Through all the bottles laying drained and empty
In resignation round you

At you asleep on my bed and I remember you said
"Just this time will be alright
But ain't nothing gonna be the same again, friend"

[Chorus]

Yeah, well it's a cold and sober night time over you
Over you, over you, over you, over you

And in lieu of your coldness, Lord
Or something that someone stole
Someone told me being sober
Might have this kind of effect on you
