Cold and Sober

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
