Lyrics
Verse 1
Cold wind cuts across the street,
I feel your memory beneath my feet.
Leaves swirl where we once stood,
Every gust reminds me I’ve lost you.
The night is long, the air is thin.
Chorus
Cold wind, I can’t let go,
I loved you deep, I loved you so.
Cold wind, blowing through my soul,
I keep your memory in control.
Verse 2
Street lamps flicker, shadows sway,
I hear your laugh but it fades away.
I wrap my coat and hug my chest,
Trying to hide this aching rest.
Every corner calls your name.
Chorus
Cold wind, I can’t let go,
I loved you deep, I loved you so.
Cold wind, blowing through my soul,
I keep your memory in control.
Verse 3
Morning comes, gray clouds above,
I walk alone, I walk in love.
The wind still bites, the night still calls,
I carry you though darkness falls.
Cold wind, fade tonight.
