I've been living in a place where I can't
Figure out a way that I can get by
So many people here I see but
Nobody I can recognize
It's getting cold outside
That isn't something I'm used to
(Ooooo)
Ain't got a stitch to wear
And no more money to burn through
And I...
Don't see the girl I wanted to see
Yeah, see can't find the time to see me
So I got this apartment
I'm trying to call home
Thinking I can't make it on my own
I got a couple of friends here but now
When I really need them they disappear
(Listen to me!)
When I tell you that the nights get so broke
No amount of nothing fixes the heater (?)
I lay awake at night
That's something I'm getting used to
(Ooooo)
I can't hold down a job
And there's no more money to turn to
Yeah, I got here thinking I was going to live out a dream
Now I'm afraid I'm dying in my sleep
If she could help with somebody for to keep back home
She wouldn't have to see me on my own
No, I can't fake it
Not on my own
No I can't take it
Not on my own
It's getting cold outside
My love ain't beating the frostbite
Yeah, 'cause every face in the street's
Staring back at me with the winter of her eyes
And I don't see the girl I moved here to see
Yeah she can't find the time to see me
So, I got that ticket
And I'm going home
'Cause I can't make it all alone
No, I can't make it on my own
