Love Is A Cold Wind

Roy Orbison · Other Songs - Roy Orbison

Love is a cold wind

When it blows away from you

As you watch it go, it hurts to know

There's nothing you can do

You're all alone again

And love is a cold wind



Love is a rain storm

But it only rains on you

And there's no one there who seems to care

No one to pull you through

And inside you're never warm

'Cause love is a rain storm



But when she was here

Love was a breezy morning

Filled with the sun

Warm as her smile

But now it's done



Love is a cold wind as it blows away from

So you find your way, to yesterday

What else is there to do

You're all alone again and love is a cold wind



But when she was here

Love was abreezy morning

Filled with the sun

Warm as her smile

But now it's done



Love is a cold wind

As it blows away from you

As you watch it go

It hurts to know

There's nothing you can do

And you're all alone again and love is a cold wind



You're all alone again and love is a cold wind.
