It's cold outside so understand

if I don't hang around to wait

I'll say goodbye and kiss your hand

and then get on with being brave

but don't expect to wipe away the tears

cos you know they belong

and someone else just went away

before I ever came along

and tried to melt the snow

and tried to melt the snow



and meanwhile I'll be here

and I pray to god above

that someday you might learn again

its you I'm dreaming of

and meanwhile I'll be here

and I pray to god above

that someday you might turn again to me

your one and ever love



Its cold outside so understand

If I don't hang around and cry

I let you go without a word

a memory bluer that the sky

and I've tried not to watch you go

and ill try not to stand alone

behind you in the snow

behind you in the snow



and meanwhile I'll be here

and I pray to god above

that someday you might turn again to me

your one and ever, one and ever

carry me away

to a world that doesn't lead to you so

I don't have to say

for all the days you wanna be there



and meanwhile I'll be here

and I pray to god above

that someday you might learn again

it's you I'm dreaming of

and meanwhile I'll be here

and I pray to god above

that someday you might turn to me again

your one and ever love



and meanwhile I'll be here

and I pray to god above

that someday you might turn again to me

your one and ever, one and ever
