it s cold outside and the paint s peeling off of my walls there s a man outside in a long coat grey hat smoking a cigarette now the light fades out and i m wondering what i m doing in a room like this there s a knock on the door and just for a second i thought i remembered you so now i m alone now i can think for myself about little deals and s u s and things that i just don t understand like a white lie that night or a slight touch at times i don t think it meant anything to you so i open the door it s the friend that i d left in the hallway i say please sit down a candle lit a shadow on a wall near the bed you know i hate to ask but are friends electric mine s broke down and now i ve no one to love so i find out your reason for the phone calls and smiles and it hurts and i m lonely and i should never have tried and i missed you tonight so it s time to leave you see it meant everything to me mine s broke down and now i ve no one to love mine s broke down and now i ve no one to love
