Where the Cold Winds Blow
Lyrics
I found the Oracle of Delphi to ask her about love
How much of it is there; can we trust the Lord above?
She answered with a question, Are you sure you wanna know?
And I stood there like a fool
Where the cold winds blow
I ran into an ex-girlfriend I hadn't seen for some time
I'd left her when I caught her with an old buddy of mine
I had so much to ask her, but just said Hello
Then left her standing in the street
Where the cold winds blow
Hustlers show their dice to me and ask me for a buck
I kindly tell them that they shouldn't challenge my luck
They encircle me like lions, I've got no option but to throw
And I stand like a high roller
Where the cold winds blow
I'm not the one you're looking for, said the clown to the bull
My grin is painted on and my wolf-skin's made of wool
The gold deep in my pockets is stolen, don't you know
And I'll spend it like I'm dying
Where the cold winds blow
The sibyls and the saints
The rebels and the whores
All wonder if it's worth it
And what we're living for
I'll tell you straight away this ain't no burlesque show
You'd be better of naked
Where the cold winds blow
