AND IT SURE BEEN A COLD, COLD WINTER
AND THE WIND AIN'T BEEN BLOWIN' FROM THE SOUTH.
IT'S SURE BEEN A COLD, COLD WINTER
AND A LOTTA LOVE IS ALL BURNED OUT.
IT SURE BEEN A HARD, HARD WINTER,
MY FEET BEEN DRAGGIN' 'CROSS THE GROUND.
AND I HOPE IT'S GONNA BE A LONG, HOT SUMMER,
AND A LOTTA LOVE WILL BE BURNIN' BRIGHT.
AND I WISH I BEEN OUT IN CALIFORNIA
WHEN THE LIGHTS ON ALL THE CHRISTMAS TREES WENT OUT.
BUT I BEEN BURNIN' MY BELL, BOOK AND CANDLE,
AND THE RESTORATION PLAYS HAVE ALL GONE 'ROUND.
IT SURE BEEN A COLD, COLD WINTER,
MY FEET BEEN DRAGGIN' 'CROSS THE GROUND.
AND THE FIELDS HAS ALL BEEN BROWN AND FALLOW,
AND THE SPRINGTIME TAKE A LONG WAY AROUND.
YEAH, AND I WISH I BEEN OUT IN STONE CANYON
WHEN THE LIGHTS ON ALL THE CHRISTMAS TREES WENT OUT.
BUT I BEEN BURNIN' MY BELL, BOOK AND CANDLE,
AND THE RESTORATION PLAYS HAVE ALL GONE 'ROUND.
SOMETIMES I THINK ABOUT YOU, BABY,
SOMETIMES I CRY ABOUT YOU.
SOMETIMES I WANNA WRAP MY COAT AROUND YOU,
SOMETIMES I WANNA KEEP YOU WARM.
SOMETIMES I WANNA WRAP MY COAT AROUND YOU,
SOMETIMES I WANNA BUT I CAN'T AFFORD YOU.
