When the Cold Comes

You don't know the ground starts shaking

When your voice is in my ear

You don't know my heart is breaking

You're just blind to my tearsYou wrote a song about a cowboy

And how he brought you to your knees

Though his story sounds familiar

I know that cowboy ain't meBut when the cold comes

Long past, the shows done

When all your love songs have lost their ring

You can find me

And we'll write a new song

The one you've wanted to singNow I hear you met a sailor

And so you've learned to love the sea

Though I've crossed the widest oceans

I know that sailor ain't me
