Eight

It was dark
I drew the blinds
Let the light in
Stinging our eyes

You went cold, you went cold

You took me in
Caught in two minds
Gave me a home
Taught me to be kind

To say hello
Or wave goodbye
To always love
And never lie

You went cold, you went cold...

I awoke
And you were there
It was silent
I was scared

I was eight
And you were old
I held your hand
As you went cold, as you went cold

'Cause I was eight
And you were old
I held your hand
As you went cold
