Lyrics Johnny Flynn

Johnny Flynn

Cold Bread

Well, I'm sure you're near and I can almost smell you

But the winds are up at the walls again

And I can hear you coming, heaven helped you coming

I believe in heaven, it's a wait away

Did you learn just how I loved you?

Did you see how far I'd been?

Would you meet me in an hour?

I could tell you what I've seen, what I've seen

Cold bread, cold bread we had

Put your whine in water, pull your chips back in

So you crawl like a crab across Blackfriars Bridge

[Incomprehensible]

I'm a bowling green, I'm a delivery boy

Have a heart which skips a beat

Oh, come on, roll along for free

In the middle of the morning

Swap your drinking nights with me, with me

Cold bread, cold bread we had

Cold bread, cold bread we had

I can live with dying, I can chew my bit

And play panic to my senses and hijack my head

It's the rhythm of moving and a rolling and a rattle

It's a giving instead, it's a well sprung bed

We can roll around forever

We can pray for all we've been

We can knock it hell for leather

We can call it all a dream, all a dream

Cold bread, cold bread we had

Cold bread, cold bread we had
