Lyrics
A Cold Night In Walpole, Lyrics and Music by Al Monte
If These Walls Could Talke, They'd Say Plenty, They've Held My Life For All These Years
When I Looked For Peace There Wasn't Any, None Could Erase The Reign Of Tears
There's No Love There's Been War, Nothing Matters Anymore,
Though The Light Flickers Every Now And Then, It's Going To Be A Cold Night In Walpole Again
VERSE
I Looked Between The Slats And Saw The Flakes Fall, This Year There's Been An Early Snow
Somehow I Managed To Answer The Roll Call, How I Heard My Name I'll Never Know
Cause I Was Thinking Of You, Something I Shouldn't Do, And My Hopes Disappeared In The Wind
It's Going To Be A Cold Night In Wallpole Again
BRIDGE
The Years Have Taken Their Toll, These Walls Have Broken Me Down
I Look For You In The Mornings, Oh But You're No Where To Be Found
VERSE
And The Days Spin By Like A Pinwheel, Faster And Faster It Goes
Taking My Life Along With It, When Will It Stop No One Knows
I've Been Here For So Long And I Know I Was Wrong, They Return Every Letter That I Send,
It's Going To Be A Cold Night In Walpole Again
Last
If These Walls Could Talk They'd Say Plenty, They've Seen Much More Than Words Can Tell.
Month After Month They've Seen Heartache, Year After Year They've Seen Hell
Not A Day Passes By, When I Don't Sit And Cry And The Walls Have Become My Only Friend
It's Going To A Cold Night In Walpole, Going To Be A Cold Night In Walpole, It's Going To Be A Cold Cold Night In Walpole Again
