Clayton Mullen - Cold, Cold Winter Lyrics

She said nothing beats the sight of Telluride this time of year
So I bought a couple flights before that snow disappeared
And we planned it out together, but somewhere along the way
Those leaves in late November weren't the only thing to change

It's gonna be a cold, cold winter beneath these Colorado pines
Who knew that you could feel so low ten-thousand feet up high
It's gonna be a long, long December in this heartbroke postcard town
There won't be much to remember the way this whiskey's going down
And I hope that summer comes and I don't miss her
It's gonna be a, a cold, cold winter

They're calling for a record low, but hell, who's even counting?
'Cause it's all gone downhill and I ain't talking 'bout the mountains
Oh, ice and bourbon sure ain't working enough to warm me up

It's gonna be a cold, cold winter beneath these Colorado pines
Who knew that you could feel so low ten-thousand feet up high
It's gonna be a long, long December in this heartbroke postcard town
There won't be much to remember the way this whiskey's going down
And I hope that summer comes and I don't miss her
It's gonna be a, a cold, cold winter

When I finally catch that red eye back to Tennessee
I hope no one asks why a sold-out flight's got an empty seat

It's gonna be a cold, cold winter beneath these Colorado pines
Who knew that you could feel so low ten-thousand feet up high
It's gonna be a long, long December in this heartbroke postcard town
There won't be much to remember the way this whiskey's going down
And I hope that summer comes and I don't miss her
It's gonna be a, a cold, cold winter
