Every night I have the same old dream
'Bout you and me and what's in between
So many changes, so many lies

Try to run, try to hide
From everything that I feel inside
But I can't escape you or your frozen eyes

(Searching in the darkness, fading out of sight)
(Love was here and gone like a thief in the night)

(Stone cold)
And I thought knew you so well
(You're stone cold)
Can't break away from your spell

Another dark and empty night
If I was wrong I wanna make it right
But you are so distant, so far away

Your words like ice fall on the ground
Breakin' the silence without a sound
Oh, familiar strangers with nothin' to say

(Searching in the darkness, fading out of sight)
(Love was here and gone like a thief in the night)
(You're stone cold)
And I thought I knew you so well
(Stone cold) yeah, yeah
I can't break away from your spell
You leave me (stone cold)

(Searching in the darkness, fading out of sight)
(Love was here and gone like a thief in the night)

(Stone cold)
(And I thought I knew you so well)
(You're stone cold) yeah
(I can't break away from your spell)
(Stone cold) baby
(I thought I knew you so well)
(You're stone cold) ice cold
(Can't break away from your spell)
You put me in the deep freeze
(Stone cold) oh, baby, don't you leave me
(And I thought I knew you so well) stone
(Stone cold) don't you leave me, yeah
(Can't break away from your spell)
(Stone cold)
(I thought I knew you so well)
(Stone cold)
(Can't break away from your spell)
(Stone cold)
(I thought I knew you so well)
(Stone cold)
(Can't break away from your spell)
(Stone cold)
(I thought I knew you so well)
(Stone cold)
