Out In The Cold - George Howard

I only wanted to play

I thought what he didn’t know wouldn’t hurt him anyway

But he found out and someone else gave him her hand to hold

And suddenly I find myself out in the cold

He trusted me all the time

I thought I could see another man and he would still be mine

Well yesterday I had a good thing worth more than gold

Today he’s got a truer love and I’m out in the cold

I had a love warmer than fire

But I listened to my desire

Now yesterday’s dreams are tomorrow’s heart aches

I’m payin' for my mistakes

Now girl, take a tip from one who knows

If you open up a new door, you may find the old one’s closed

So be true to your good man

Take a lesson from the story I have told

Or you just might get-a left now out in the cold

You just might get-a left now out in the cold

Don’t let yourself get left now out in the cold

Don’t let yourself get left now out in the cold
