Cold cold change, we were so excited

But you came and went so soon

Cold cold change, we were not invited

We smiled all the while we were taken in



Cold cold change, bringing in the winter

Freezing up the water, closing up the mind

One more danger, gonna have to deal with

One last moment fading all the time



But no lasting change, well we were turned around

We jumped in the air to see over the wall

No master plan, it's a bad design

Significant time in spite of us all



Cold cold change, we were so excited

Waiting on the outside, waiting to begin

Left us all angry and bewildered

Laughing at the way we were taken in



You better lock the door, turn it off (the light)

We'll leave the nights alone, better keep me hoping

That the change is over, the ice is gone

And when the weather's warmer you can hear me shouting yeah
