Every morning Before the sun does rise He cries Then he wipes away his tears He'll have no fears And no one will know how hard he tries Every minute of every day She prays That she will be strong Enough to carry on But she fears she's wasting away It's a cold day in history One of the coldest of all time I'm so caught up with trying to stay warm I forget to pay others any mind Every evening After the sun goes down He feels alone In his heart of hearts Soul of souls He wonders if he'll ever make it home Every hour of every night She lies awake Thinking of all she's got to do Just to make it through Can she handle all that is at stake It's a cold day in history One of the coldest of the year Can i hold you in my arms And help you forget the fear Can i hold you in my arms And help you forget the fear
