DESCRIPTION:
Cold-Hearted (Back from Nashville), 2014

You used to say I was cold-hearted
And that was up to just two weeks ago
And just two months ago you were holding my hand
And now you're off to live in some other land
You used to say I was cold-hearted
But that's much better than to have no heart, my dear

You float around from person to person
To find the one who will support you best
You keep a straight face and steady breath
And you tell everyone you're not like the rest
You used to say I was cold-hearted
But you have not seen the first of it, my dear

Cause when you come back from Nashville
You'd better tell me how it was
Cause that's the only thing you'll ever get to say to me
You'll be begging for someone to save you
Just to bring you back alive
You knew it would never work out
When you have no heart, you have no heart inside

You used to say I was cold-hearted
And you'd hold me close in the dead of night
In the dead of night, you'd tell me your secrets
In the light of day, I said I would keep them
You used to say I was cold-hearted
But that's much better than to have no heart, my dear

I was fine with just being friends
I did not care if I would see you again
You had to go and banish me
Like a guilty thought you could never think
Like I was some mistake or some vile poison
But listen to the truth
That mistake was you

Cause when you come back from Nashville
You'd better tell me how it was
Cause that's the only thing you'll ever get to say to me
You'll be begging for someone to save you
Just to bring you back alive
You knew it would never work out
When you have no heart, you have no heart inside

What do you say to your family?
What do you say to your friends?
Do you say, that I've made mistakes
And after all this time I've admitted to them
So that makes them alright
How do you sleep at night?

I used to deal with your past and your lovers
But you did not want to deal with me
I held back because you weren't ready
But you made the moves and then let me be
You jumped into the arms of another
After you said we had something here
You used to say I was cold-hearted
But that's much better than to have no heart, my dear

You always care about how happy you look
Not how you'll feel tomorrow
If you ever get back from Nashville
It would be wise of you to avoid me
You used to say I was cold-hearted
But that's much better than, much better than you

If your juke box is ever broken
Try hard to survive
You'd better listen to me this time
Because that city will eat you alive
You always say I am cold-hearted
But you still have so much here to learn
You're gonna slip and fall if you don't
And your lying face is gonna burn, burn, burn

If you find someone who treats you half as good
You'd better treat him right, you'd better treat him right
If you find someone who treats you half as good
You'd better hold on tight, you'd better hold on tight
