Lovers In The Cold

Intro (repeat once) verse 1 Oh Billy stares at Cherry in the hall And walks out into the rain so blessed and tall Standin' on the corner with a gun underneath his coat Beneath the stars on the street Oh on Lexington Avenue they stand Velvet aces they case the promised land Reachin' out across the hoods with both hands Oh, tryin' to catch a ride Tonight we're lovers in the cold, oh, oh, oh Running past the graveyards in the snow, no, no, no Walking in the street with nowhere to go, oh, oh, oh And it's no, no, no, no, no, no, no Interlude (repeat once) verse 2 Oh and the getaway driver waits outside the store He pulls away just as Billy runs out the door Oh and Billy won't run anymore, no, no, no Oh baby I can't lay the stars at your feet Oh but I think we could take it all, just you and me Oh come on, you'll see, there's a lot of room For you baby, in this front seat Tonight we're lovers on that road, oh, oh, oh Running past the graveyards in the snow, oh, oh, oh Walking in the street with nowhere to go, oh, oh, oh And it's oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh Interlude (repeat once) Tonight we're lovers in the snow, oh, oh, oh Running past the graveyards, no, no, no Walking in the street with nowhere to go, oh, oh, oh And it's oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh Outro (repeat once)
