The Black Crowes Dirty Cold Sun Lyrics
Well, I thought I saw the butcher straightening the sheets
When I noticed you had blood streaked across your cheek
You thought you heard me crying, but it ain’t what it seems
I was walking out your red room, laughing up my sleeve
I’ve, I’ve been waiting so long
So long
Out under your dirty, cold sun
Your fist was filled with fire
Your mouth is spilled black smoke
I would’ve called it magic, but it was just a hoax
I was taken from the pages of your burning midnight book
In the mirror, you are righteous
Yeah, but I’ve never had a look
I’ve, I’ve been waiting so long
So long
Out under your dirty, cold sun
Yeah, forgot the name, remembered the wound
Oh, it came on so quick and faded so soon
Look into my eyes and tell me what you see
Can you see the fire burning inside of me?
Yeah, I’m freezing
Uh, said I’m freezing
Uh, you got me freezing
Uh, freezing cold
Yes, I’m freezing
For sure ‘nough got me freezing
Huh, said I’m freezing
Freezing cold, yeah
I’ve, I’ve been waiting so long
Sure ‘nough got me freezing, sure ‘nough got me freezing
So long
Out under your dirty, cold sun
Yeah, you got me freezing, freezing to my bones
I’ve, I’ve been waiting so long
So long
Out under your dirty, cold sun
Cold sun, oh yeah
