Cold Days
Bonfire Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I knew you so well or that's what I thought
Believed it would last forever
Somehow I know for sure
We're going our separate ways

Yesterday's gone - I'm out on the run
I'm tryin' to hide my feelings
There's no way to stick it out
Our love is on the line

Gonna take love or leave love today
But I know that I can't make you stay

[Chorus]
Cold days, hard times
In my heart the rain is pourin'
Cold days, long nights
Lost without you

The damage is done, we can't carry on
Cause something has stolen our passion
I'm wounded in my heart
But you don't sense my pain

I can't break the ice, you loaded the dice
I always end up loosin'
All the good times we shared
Are now history

Drown in dreams and in heartaches again
Lovin' you is the name of my pain





[Chorus]
