Cold Sweat - Pere Ubu

Hold me close

I feel the time running out

I know you must feel it too

I feel the notion to dive in an ocean

I am the diving duck for a new day

That we will never see

Street lamps call to me

The night breaths slow

The river winds

It’s a stage — here we stand

The words come to me

Like I learned the lines by rote

Thank you

You’ve been great and I really mean that

I love you so

Hold me close

I feel the time running away

I know you must feel it too

Sometimes I feel an ocean

Hold m close
