(In The) Cold Light of Day Songtext

von Gene Pitney

I've offered you all I have
Just to spend my life with you
(Just to be with you)
But someone's got a claim on me
These few hours will have to do
So hold me tight, let's make this night last forever

Cos in the cold light of day, baby
I'll be going on my way
You're good for me, baby, but we met to late
And I've got so much love to give
And I've just got to learn to live
Without you

How could we know the time would come
When you and I would feel this way
(Just to be with you)
Love started as a playful thing
Just turned out a different way
So clock on the wall
Please don't tick at all
Just stand still

Cos in the cold light of day, baby
I'll be going on my way
You're good for me, baby, but we met to late
And I've got so much love to give
And I've just got to learn to live
Without you

In the cold light of day baby
I'll be going on my way (repeat 2x)
