Cold, Cold, Streets Lyrics

Cold, cold streets

Every time I go away
I say a prayer I find the strength to stay
Just strong enough to clear my mind
Just long enough to keep you mine
For I need another day to find another way to hold on
Just another day to find another way to hold on

For I might never find my way
Through the cold cold streets
That lead me to the heat girl
I might never find the strength
To try to make it sweet
Take me your heat girl
Now you told me our love was real
And you'd take a chance on what you feel
But you don't believe what your own eyes see
But I would look if it was up to me

For I need another day to find another way to hold on
Just another day to find another way to hold on

Hold on
Hold on to the one you need
Don't let her slip away
Hold on
Hold on to the one you love
And tell her every day
Now at last my lesson's learned
And I've heard your cries
Until my eyes have burned
So thank you girl, I'll always be
Yours in love eternally

(F.S. Sharkey / D. Kortchmar / D. Lasley)
