Come stand beside me Come gather 'round me Come stand beside me, come gather 'round me And heat this cold, cold heart
 
When I was just a boy The voice of an angel came to me It said your future is there Inside your cold, cold heart But I was just a boy And a boy sees what he wants to see And I saw nothing to share Inside this cold, cold heart Somebody should have told me That when you're born to this world Your life starts slipping away
 
Come stand beside me (cold heart) Come gather 'round me (cold heart) Come stand beside me, come gather 'round me And heat this cold, cold heart With love inside me (cold heart) With arms around me (cold heart) With love inside me, with arms around me We'll heat this cold, cold heart
 
When I became a man The voice of a devil said to me It said forever you'll live Inside your cold, cold heart But I'm a better man A wiser man who wants to be free To have someone to care About this cold, cold heart Somebody should have loved me They should have taken me on Instead of taking away
 
Come stand beside me (cold heart) Come gather 'round me (cold heart) Come stand beside me, come gather 'round me And heat this cold, cold heart With love inside me (cold heart) With arms around me (cold heart) With love inside me, with arms around me We'll heat this cold, cold heart
 
Ohhh... Come stand beside me Come gather 'round me Come stand beside me, come gather 'round me And heat this cold, cold heart With love inside me (cold heart) With arms around me (cold heart) With love inside me, with arms around me We'll heat this cold, cold heart
 
Come stand beside me (ohhh...) Come gather 'round me (ohhh...) Come stand beside me, come gather 'round me And heat this cold, cold heart With love inside me (cold heart) With arms around me (cold heart) With love inside me, with arms around me We'll heat this cold, cold heart
