Cold Steel Drum lyrics

by

Leonard Cohen


[Verse I: Jehn Grant]
I lay down for you, in black and blue
Life here is getting mad without you
The sun is hot and I can feel your heart beating
Like a cold steel drum of the winter
Overall, overall the land that spreads across there
Seasons and I'm still waiting for you...
Bring me back to love's surrender

[Hook: Buck 65] x2
True desire, through the fire
It all came right down to the wire
The way we came together and the way we split
Man, we've been through some crazy sh*t...

[Verse II: Jehn Grant]
Baby I know, you don't need me holding
Back my heart now
I've got the feeling that it's getting stronger anyhow
Won't you come along to the places that I wander
I've got to get back, we can learn from each other

[Hook: Buck 65] x2
True desire, through the fire
It all came right down to the wire
The way we came together and the way we split
Man, we've been through some crazy sh*t...

[Jehn Grant]
Bring me back... Bring me back...
Bring me back... Bring me back... to love's surrender

[Verse III: Buck 65]
Who could have guessed it would ever go
As deep as this?
Singing without voice, amnesia and sleeplessness
Hunter goes quietly, distance seduced you
Windows that don't open, it's hard to get used to
The other shoe drops with a dutiful thud
Your eyes on the door and your beautiful blood
Overcast skies that are permanent and ominous
Hopper-esque hotel rooms and the anonymous
Already I find myself alone
And my mind wanders into the unknown
Counting the seconds and vowing the thirds
I sped through space with the rapidity of words
The worse kind of wounds don't even break the skin
I hope I never make the same mistake again
Memories and scars that I intend to keep
Wounded and ruined, I only pretend to sleep
