cold cold change

cold cold change

we were so excited

but you came and went so soon

cold cold change

we were not invited

we smiled all the while we were taken in

cold cold change

bringing in the winter

freezing up the water

closing up the mind

one more danger

gonna have to deal with

one last moment fading all the time

but no lasting change

well we were turned around

we jumped in the air to see over the wall

no master plan

it's a bad design

significant time in spite of us all

cold cold change

we were so excited

waiting on the outside

waiting to begin

left us all angry and bewildered

laughing at the way we were taken in

you better lock the door

turn it off

we'll leave the nights alone

better keep me hoping

that the change is over

the ice is gone

and when the weather's warmer you can hear me shouting yeah
