text: Back in 1957
  We had to dance a foot apart
  And they hawk-eyed us from the sidelines
  Holding their rulers without a heart
  And so with just a touch of our fingers
  Ah, it could make our circuitry explode
  All we ever wanted
  Was just to come in from the cold
   Come in
  Come in from the cold 
  We were so young
  Oh come in
  Come in from the cold
  We really thought we had a purpose
  We were so anxious to achieve
  We had hope
  The world held promise
  For a slave to liberty
  Freely I slaved away for something better
  And I was bought and sold
  And all I ever wanted
  Was just to come in from the cold
  Come in from the cold 
  We were so sure
  Oh come in
  Come in from the cold
  I feel your legs under the table
  Leaning into mine
  I feel renewed
  I feel disabled
  By these bonfires in my spine
  I dont know who the arsonist was
  Which incendiary soul
  But all I ever wanted
  Was just to come in from the cold
  Come in from the cold 
  You were too warm
  Oh come in
  Come in from the cold
  I am not some stone commission
  Like a statue in a park
  I am flesh and blood and vision
  I am howling in the dark
  Long blue shadows of the jackals
  Are falling on a pay phone by the road
  Oh, all they ever wanted
  Was just to come in from the cold
  Come in from the cold 
  I was so low
  Oh come in
  Come in from the cold
  Is this just vulgar electricity
  Is this the edifying fire
  It was so pure
  Does your smiles covert complicity
  Debase as it admires
  Just a flu with a temperature
  Are you just checking out your mojo
  Or am I just fighting off growing old
  Just a high fever
  All I ever wanted
  Was just to come in from the cold
  Come in from the cold 
  It was so pure
  Please come in
  Come in from the cold
  I know we never will be perfect
  Never entirely clear
  When the moon shines
  We get hurt and we just panic
  And we strike out
  Out of fear
  You were only being kind
  I fear the sentence of this solitude
  Two hundred years on hold
  For my loving crime
  Oh and all we ever wanted
  Was just to come in from the cold
   Come in
  Come in from the cold 
  When the moon shines
  Oh come in
  Come in from the cold
  When I thought life had some meaning
  When I thought Id had some choice
  I was running blind
  And I made some value judgments
  In a self-important voice
  I was outta line, outta line
  But then absurdity came over me
  And I longed to lose control
  Into no mind
  Oh all I ever wanted
  Was just to come in from the cold
  Come in from the cold 
  You were so kind
  Please come in
  Come in from the cold 
  Oh Come in come in
  Come in from the cold 
  Oh Come in come in
  Come in from the cold 
  Please come in
  Come in from the cold ...
