Story behind the song
The first song on the album, it was also the first song written in January 2004-so just a simple ice breaker which turned into a strong melodic track. One of the few Sarah and I wrote in the same room. Something I've rarely done but seems to work well.
Lyrics
Cold Cold Day
I woke up
Then I changed my mind
Closed my eyes
Left the world behind
And I'm dreaming
You can't free me
Only Dreaming
Will the morning cheat me
In a blazing dawn
Babe I'm tired and I'm all alone
And this road I'm walking
On a Cold Cold day
Every step i'm taking
Takes me further away
Don't know where I'm going
Don't know if I'll stay
Though the sun is smiling
It's a cold cold day
I let go
Or at least I tried
I don't know
Was it just my pride
And i'm screaming
Won't you free me
Softly screaming
Can you still see through me
But the sky looks torn
Babe i'm tired and I can't find home
