Lyrics Kris Delmhorst

Kris Delmhorst

Mean Old Wind

I was born in the middle of an ice storm

On the longest night of the year

And that frozen rain on the old window pane

Was the first sound I ever did hear

Won't you stand beside me darling?

So I don't have to feel so alone

Hold me tight all through the night

When that old winter wind begins to blow

When the sky is turning gray and cloudy

Weatherman is saying ten below

And the icicles drop from every rooftop

That's when that old chill creeps into my bones

Won't you stand beside me darling?

So I don't have to feel so alone

Hold me tight all through the night

When that old winter wind begins to blow

Well it's one thing roamin' in the springtime

Or in the long lazy days of July

I don't care at all if you leave me in the fall

But in the wintertime I want you by my side

Won't you stand beside me darling?

So I don't have to feel so alone

Hold me tight all through the night

When that old winter wind begins to blow
