[Verse 1]
It's cold outside
And the paint's peeling off of my walls
There's a man outside
In a long coat, grey hat, smoking a cigarette
[Verse 2]
Now the light fades out
And I'm wondering what I'm doing in a room like this
There's a knock on the door
And just for a second, I thought I remembered you
[Chorus 1]
So now I'm alone, now I can think for myself
About little deals and issues, and things I just don't understand
Like a white lie at night, a slight touch at times
I don't think it meant anything to you
[Verse 3]
So I open the door
It's the friend that I'd left in the hallway
Please sit down
A candle lit shadow on a wall near the bed
[Verse 4]
You know I hate to ask
But, are friends electric?
Only mines broke down
And now I've no one to love
[Chorus 2]
So I find out your reason for the phone calls and smiles
And it hurts and I'm lonely, and I should never have tried
And I missed you tonight, so it's time to leave
You see this means everything to me
