Lyrics

The Chill

Here comes the chill, there's the icy stare
If I try to hold her I get a cold shoulder
There's a real chill in the air

Alone at the pinnacle of Mount Cynical
Girl's at the top of her game
She pushed me to the side stripped me of my pride
Everyday it's always the same

No sober man could understand her
So pass me my liquor and pills
They make me feel better whenever I feel the chill

It starts in the chromosome move to the backbone
Make me shiver and shake
Up to the lips then along to the fingertips
Watch me quiver and quake

Down to the knees and now I'm really freezin'
Extremities are turnin' blue
I can't feel the toes they must be froze
The chill fill me through and through

No mortal man can stand it
The symptoms persist until
You say your sorry and maybe survive the chill

My baby gave me the chill, and I never said a word
I never raised an eye, never asked why
These episodes occured

You gotta let it go, try to lay low
Live to fight another day
'Cause there's no potion or medicinal lotion
To wash that chill away

No sane man can understand 'em
Except maybe Dr. Phil
He says tell her you love her whenever you feel the chill

Now I'm the kind of man who don't understand
But I love her still
And that's what I tell her whenever I feel the chill
