ColdCyndi Lauper

I met a man who drew the line
He couldn't cross his fear of intimacy
He just sighed
Because he left behind all his fantasy
Ooh-hoo, ooh, woo, woo, yeah

If you build a wall up, high
You start to crumble
And you never know why
Your tears never dry

If you're running from the vision
That's in your eyes
There's a collision with what's inside
This ain't livin'
I need someone to hold
How did it get so cold

You say you need a little time
To heal from some romantic injury
And I say fine
But if you change your mind
You can lean on me
Ooh, woo, woo, yeah

But I'm going on with my life, oh
I've seen it everyday
People get burned
And they throw love away

If you're running from the vision
That's in your eyes
There's a collision with what's inside
This ain't livin'
I need someone to hold
How did it get so cold

If you build a wall up, high
You start to crumble
And you never know why
Your tears never dry

If you're running from the vision
That's in your eyes
There's a collision with what's inside
This ain't livin'
I need someone to hold
How did it get so cold

Cold, so cold
Cold
I need someone to hold
How did it get so cold
It's coming from the kitchen
It's coming from the sky
It's coming round the corner
Straight for you and I
It gets so cold

Cyndi Lauper

An 80’s pop starlet that skyrocketed her way to the top of the mainstream game, Cyndi Lauper has made her mark as an artist both socially and musically.

Beginning her solo career in the 1983 with hit debut album She’s So Unusual, Lauper came to be a household name with the four top-five hits that came with the record, including breakthrough single “Girls Just Wanna Have Fun” and the visceral, chart-topping “Time After Time”. Her camp attitude, electrifying vocals, and unrelenting earworms made an impression on the general public, and she would take home Best New Artist and Best Album Package at the Grammy’s for She’s So Unusual, amidst 4 other nominations. Lauper would never reach the same sort of stardom again musically following She’s So Unusual, but her legacy was far from over.

She’s So Unusual set the ground for her next True Colors. Released in 1986, the album most notably contained title-track “True Colors”, which would grow to become a primary anthem of the gay rights movement. Lauper would later serve as a key advocate of the LGBT community, and she has fairly consistently addressed homophobia throughout her career.
