Cold Like This Lyrics

I've never known cold like this before
I've never known cold like this
I've never known cold like this before
I've never known cold like this

The winds will blow and the winds will roar
I've never known cold like this
The gulls are frozen to the shore
I've never known cold like this
Should I die in the Boston snow
You can burn my body to escape the cold
I beg for the fires of hell below
I've never known cold like this

I've never known cold like this before
I've never known cold like this
I've never known cold like this before
I've never known cold like this

I've slogged in dear old Montreal
I've never known cold like this
35 men lost to a squall
I've never known cold like this
Should I hear the banshee sing
You can thaw my body by the turn of spring
Death would be such a beautiful thing
I've never known cold like this

I've never known cold like this before
I've never known cold like this
I've never known cold like this before
I've never known cold like this

Your flowing blood will start to freeze
I've never known cold like this
Your legs stop moving and you lock your knees
I've never known cold like this
You freeze your lungs when you breathe it in
And the harbor hisses with the cruel north wind
Frostbite takes your sorry skin
I've never known cold like this

You clench your jaw 'til your face goes numb
I've never known cold like this
You cannot be saved by the strongest rum
I've never known cold like this
Your chattering teeth will start to crack
Your lips turn blue and your feet turn black
They'll dig your grave when the leaves are back
I've never known cold like this

I've never known cold like this before
I've never known cold like this
I've never known cold like this before
I've never known cold like this
