Music & Lyrics Written By Howard Axtell

Gonna tell you a story bout a woman so lonely, all she really needed was a friend
With tears in her eyes she stared out the window, at the cold and lonely wind
It seemed like forever I’d wanted to see her, I knew he’d break her heart again
Was just a matter of time before she was mine and I opened up the door and let her in

Said I’ll keep the cold away, keep the cold away from your heart
Keep the cold away, keep the cold from tearing you apart

Somewhere there’s a card game, he’s holdin’ a flushed hand, at the break of day
He’s emptied a bottle in another’s lovin’ arms, she’s holdin’ on to him
The woman he’s cheatin’ is changin’ her name, lyin’ in my arms, shaking off the rain
Leavin’ his promises, baby’s gonna win
And take this heart of mine and learn to love again

She like a flower, needin’ the rain
A heart filled with sunshine, just needin’ a friend
I’d waited forever just to begin, to keep the cold from ever comin’ back again

Said I’ll keep the cold away, keep the cold away from your heart
Keep the cold away, keep the cold from tearing you apart

Kick it up!

Said I’ll keep the cold away, keep the cold away from your heart
Keep the cold away, keep the cold from tearin’ you a apart.
Keep the cold away, keep the cold away, from your heart
