Píseň: Out In The Cold Again

Interpret:
Sam Cooke
Album:
My Kind Of Blues
The song that you sang so sweetly
 You called it our love refrain
 Now it's gone and I'm left completely
 Oh, I'm out in the cold again


 I dreamed that our love would linger
 But just, oh, just memories remain
 I gaze at a ringless finger
 Looks like I'm out in the cold again


 So true, it hurts my pride
 To step aside for somebody new
 Oh, but deep down inside
 My whole world depended on you


 And oh, I, I wanted your arms around me
 To shelter me, to shelter me from the rain
 Oh, but now I'm back where I started
 Oh, I'm out in the cold again


 And oh, I'm out, I'm out in the cold again
 One more time, I'm out in the cold again
