Lyrics Todd Rundgren

Todd Rundgren

Cold Morning Light

I believe if I was all alone

I would be better off in a world my own

I'd forget I ever knew of you

And this dream every night that you put me through

We walk along a Hollywood sea

And you dance once again with me

We are close, we are friends

And our love never ends

But in the cold morning light I see

That you won't be back for me

The wound you left is healing and then

It starts itching and I scratch it open again

So the pain comes out and I give in

And indulge my imaginations, whims

We sit and drink Victorian tea

And your face wears a smile for me

I was yours, you were mine

Our hearts bound, lost in time

But in the cold morning light I see

That you won't be back

For me there can be no peace

For me there can be no rest

I believe though I've tried my best

I'm condemned it seems

To a life of restlessness and broken dreams

We are close, we are friends

And our love never ends

But in the cold morning light I see

That you won't be back for me
