[Verse 1]
The cold has a voice
It talks to me
Stillborn by choice
It airs no need
To hold
[Pre-Chorus]
Old man feels the cold
Oh, baby, don't ‘cause I've been told
[Chorus]
Stay on these roads
We shall meet, I know
Stay on, my love
We shall meet, I know, I know
[Verse 2]
Where joy should reign
These skies restrain
Shadows your love
The voice trails off again (x2)
[Pre-Chorus]
Old man feels the cold
Oh, baby, don't ‘cause I've been told
[Chorus 2]
Stay on these roads
We shall meet, I know
Stay on, my love
You feel so weak, be strong
Stay on, stay on
We shall meet, I know, I know
I know, my love, I know
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Feel the cold
Winter's gone, I'm on my own
[Chorus 3]
Stay on these roads
We shall meet, I know
Stay on, my love
We will meet, I know
So stay on, I know
Stay, my love, stay on
We will meet, I know, I know
The cold has a voice
It talks to me
Stillborn by choice
It airs no need
To hold
[Pre-Chorus]
Old man feels the cold
Oh, baby, don't ‘cause I've been told
[Chorus]
Stay on these roads
We shall meet, I know
Stay on, my love
We shall meet, I know, I know
[Verse 2]
Where joy should reign
These skies restrain
Shadows your love
The voice trails off again (x2)
[Pre-Chorus]
Old man feels the cold
Oh, baby, don't ‘cause I've been told
[Chorus 2]
Stay on these roads
We shall meet, I know
Stay on, my love
You feel so weak, be strong
Stay on, stay on
We shall meet, I know, I know
I know, my love, I know
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Feel the cold
Winter's gone, I'm on my own
[Chorus 3]
Stay on these roads
We shall meet, I know
Stay on, my love
We will meet, I know
So stay on, I know
Stay, my love, stay on
We will meet, I know, I know
