Cold As Stone
A-Ha · Memorial Beach
You roam the streets
And crack again
You're back again
You're travel-worn
Standing here in the town
Where you were born
It's not your home
The mirror sees you
So alone
...Cold as stone - Yeah
You're not your own
You feel a chill
Go through your bones
You're not your own
There's something wrong
You call the doctor on a phone
He's not at home
So you leave a message
After the tone -
"I'm cold as stone"
Emerald green neon lights above
Sapphire red falls on you below
Cold as stone
Emerald green neon lights above
Sapphire reds fall on you below
You're back again
You send a curse out
In to the night
You're back again
You're travel-worn
Standing here
In the town you were born
It's not your home
The mirror sees you
So alone
...Cold as stone
Cold as stone
