You've got to keep your eyes open
To what's ahead
Keep the thought clear
Running through your head
In this life
Coming in from the cold
Keep your head above the water
And the level rising
Keep a true heart
With no surprises in this life
Coming in from the cold
Coming in from the cold
You've got to keep the words flowing
Like the rush of a river
Realization of something much bigger
In this life
Coming in from the cold
Washing the soil
You're washing of water
Stripping in pure light
Stripping the father from the cane crop
Coming in from the cold
Coming in from the cold
It's cold outside, the ice is forming
I can see my breath
How I long for the warming
Underneath the stars
The moon she will guide us
To the growing embers of the fire inside us
When the fair weather wind
Is rustling the trees
Hustling and bustling
In the fair weather breeze
Got to remember
We're coming in from the cold
From the larger than life
To the small speck of dust
The dog days of summer should still remind us
That in this life
We're coming in from the cold
Coming in from the cold
It's cold outside
The ice is forming
I can see my breath
How I long for the warming
Underneath the stars
The moon she will guide us
To the glowing embers of the fire inside us
All I know is with my own two hands
I suspect that everyone in every land
In this life, is coming in from the cold
The nation's children
From near and from far
There's hope that you'll be smarter
Than we are in your life
As you come in from your cold
Coming in from the cold
Coming in from the cold
Coming in from the cold
Coming in from the cold
