Lyrics
Leaving me Cold
I knew a girl who stayed home one summer
As I packed my bags and went off to school
We were in love, not for sex or money
We were seventeen, it was all that we knew
And I walked the highway that summer
'Till I wore through my shoes
But in the dust and the lust
I was blind to her trust
And I ran away with another
She cried:
Don't you go, Honey,
You're breaking my heart,
Leaving me cold
Don't you go, Honey,
You're breaking my heart,
Leaving me cold
I knew a girl who wouldn't leave with her lover
As I packed my bags to go north for the fall
We were in love, but it was just for one summer
We were twenty-one, it's the best we knew of
But in the north there's more than the cold
It gets dark up there too
And a man's bound to change as he finds his own way
Home from a blistering winter
She cried:
Where'd you go, Honey
You've broken apart
You're not the man that I knew
Where'd you go, Honey
You're breaking my heart,
Leaving me too
I met a girl who saved me one winter
As I packed up my bags and I went off to play a show
I was only looking for sex and money
But she saw more in me than I'd ever know
That's when I knew that I'd faltered
And still that I saw:
That with all your love lost, you're still better off
To lose than to not love another
She said:
Don't you cry, Honey
Just give me your heart
I won't leave you cold
Don't you cry, Honey
Just give me your heart
I won't leave you cold
Until then I never knew that I loved anyone
Maybe I never knew how
Best not to say anything, let her think you're a fool
Than to speak and remove all doubt
