Cold Dark and Yesterday Songtext
von Daryl Hall & John Oates

The sun beats down so slow
I feel my body heating up inside (oh)
I watch the danger zone
For signs of life, but not a soul alive
Try every trick I know
To keep my temperature from blowing sky-high (oh)
Check on the time to go
I lay my spirit down to fantasize (go head on)

Disembark, disconnect
Possibilities unknown
On the edge of a-heading for heavy weather (oh)
I suspect, I can tell
I can feel it in my bones
All not well, but you never, never, never know


(Cold and it′s dark) I'm feeling cold
(Cold and it′s dark) I'm feeling cold
(Cold and it's dark) I feel the chill
(Yesterday) is all around me, yeah
(Cold and it′s dark) just like the space in my heart
It′s cold and it's dark and yesterday

Glamorama all around me
Friendly natives turning back to brown (oh)
I keep my shades well down
They cannot penetrate what can′t be found (oh-oh)
I feel the fever start to rise
Slip away in indiscreet disguise (oh)

How can a man survive when the weak meet the soft
And the heat blinds your eyes? (Go head now)

Left to right, up and down
Well, it's picture-postcard time
Hear the sounds, save the image in my mind

(Cold and it′s dark) I'm feeling cold
(Cold and it′s dark) I'm feeling cold
(Cold and it's dark) I feel the chill
(Yesterday) is all around me, yeah
(Cold and it′s dark) just like the space in my heart
It′s cold (cold and it's dark)
(Yesterday)


Cold
Dark

(Cold and it′s dark) I'm feeling cold
(Cold and it′s dark) I'm feeling cold
(Cold and it′s dark) I feel the chill
(Yesterday) is all around me, yeah
(Cold and it's dark) just like the space in my heart
It's cold and it′s dark and yesterday

Disembark, disconnect
Possibilities unknown
On the edge of a-heading for heavy weather
Cold and it′s dark
Go head on
Oh

Left to right, up and down (cold and it's dark)
Well, it′s picture-postcard time (go head on)
Hear the sounds, save the image in my mind (oh)
Cold and it's dark
Go head on

When the weak meet the soft
Well, how can a man survive? (Oh-oh-oh)
Feel the heat start to rise (cold and it′s dark)
Glamorama all around (go head on)
Oh

(Cold and it's dark) I suspect, I can tell
I can feel it in my bones (go head on)
All not well, but you never... (Oh-oh-oh)
Cold and it′s dark
Go head on
Oh (oh)

Cold and it's dark (dark)
Go head on
Oh (oh-oh-oh-oh)
Cold and it's dark (dark)
Go head on
Oh (oh)
