Frozen tight inside your soul
You want to run but there's nowhere to go
Killing time in the city of hate
As if hating could ever make you great
Now there is something to contemplate
If you're not afraid
Chorus:
And the only thing that can keep me sane
Through the long winter months and the days of rain
Is drawing the curtains and soaking the stains
And watching the ice on the windowpane
Dying thoughts of romantic evenings
Kisses and touches to keep your heart beating
It's all just a way to justify feelings
Killing time in the city of love
As if loving could ever give you enough
You need some lust and a whole lot of trust
And a word called "us"
Chorus:
And the only thing that can keep me sane
Through the long winter months and the days of rain
Is drawing the curtains and soaking the stains
And watching the ice on the windowpane
