Lyrics
A Cold Wind
(Music & lyrics by Rhett Davis)
I feel a cold wind blowing down the valley tonight
But not as cold as I feel since you said goodbye
You told me you'd be happy to share my life and dreams
In this mountain paradise among the lakes and evergreens
Pre-chorus: 1
But I saw your love begin to fade like the autumn colors do
When they turn to winter shades
Chorus 1
And a cold wind is wrapped around my soul
(even) when the springtime flowers are blooming
A cold wind blows
Verse 3
I know I missed my chances to try to make you stay
No final words were spoken you just walked away
I'm aching with the memory of you laying by my side
(with the) reflection of the river sparkling in your eyes
2nd pre-chorus
The lights of the northern sky have gone
Dark and they won't dance again
Til you're back here in my arms
Chorus 2
And a cold wind is wrapped around my soul
(even) when the summer sun is burning
A cold wind blows
Bridge:
I know you loved me all you could - perhaps a little more
But this high country life it wore you down I know
(and tho') you've been gone for quite awhile
Just when the evening light is right
I see your faded footprints in the snow oh no
Chorus 3
That cold wind is wrapped around my soul
And now that the winter's setting in
A cold wind blows
And now that the winter's really setting in
A cold wind blows
