Cold One (Bonus Track)

from Normalcy, Please by Paul Ventura

/

lyrics

it's a cold one
when you will that pride away
with a tail between some knees
you'd sooner find your head and aim

it's a problem
that i can't find the remedy
always let's talk about it one more time
and i'll find a melody


when that cold wind sang
it froze you some place
made of worlds and distant memories
that since changed a million ways

but you stood in place
and you drank in faith
that you'd find yourself that missing clue
in a life that don't remain

it's a game


you're a drunk man
who's never seen for sure she's gone
you just repeat the words until the world just hums along

or an old man
in that honest kind of way
wouldn't blame it on the reverie
sooner blame it on the rain

(chorus)
it's a cold one
when it brings you round my way
never said out loud you needed help
never set the traps you made

it's a cold one
and there ain't no other way
when you found something worth waiting for
you never thought it was your place


in the time since you put you away
we found that love that filled and covered up that drain
we found your chance was never gauged in months or days

it's a shame

(chorus)
you're a cold one
who never found another way
had a year or two of better luck
just enough to keep you trained

you're a slow song
with a heart to love and blame
when you heard that distant melody
it took you too far away

you're a cold one
