Cold As Fire

Joy Oladokun


Please, don't call
Even after all this time
You're still so heavy on my mind, I'm sorry
Don't know if I can survive a single word
And I heard that life's being kind to you
So glad you're doing well
And that you're free, that you're not unhappy
As for me, I wonder why we didn't last

'Cause what if I never find
Someone to thrill me like you do?
You did

Guess I'm not getting over you
I'm just getting by
I'm surviving losing you
One day at a time
Learning how to make it through
Learning how to live
With the ghost you left in every room
No, I'm not getting over you, oh
Ooh

I'm cold as fire
Embers fleeking solely into ashes
And you still warm the night
Now we don't speak at all
Please, please, don't call
I'm not strong enough to hear your voice
Oh, it's like my favorite song
The music of all my better years

And what if I never find
Someone to thrill me like you do?
You did

Guess I'm not getting over you
I'm just getting by
I'm surviving losing you
One day at a time
Learning how to make it through
Learning how to live
With the ghost you left in every room
No, I'm not getting over you, oh
Ooh, ooh

Give me time to forget
Give me time to catch my breath
Some things are better left unsaid
And I'm not ready to see you again

I'm not getting over you
I'm just getting by (just getting by)
I'm surviving losing you
One day at a time
Learning how to make it through
Learning how to live (learning how to live)
With the ghost you left in every room
No, I'm not getting over you, oh
