Why Do We Shake In The Cold? - Elderbrook

Can’t help the way the body moves

Why do we shake in the cold, naked and stoned?

And how that every time we choose

Something has to break in the fall and I pay for it all

If only I could tell myself at twenty years

That someone else was waiting along, well I would have run

If only I could start again, I’d pick apart the pieces

And assemble them all, the way that I want

Oh, why do we shake in the cold?

Oh, why do we shake in the cold?

So, teach me how to swim, before I learn to fly

Oh, I feel it on my skin, so hold me till I’m dry

Oh, why do we shake in the cold?
