Cold Hands/Warm Heart

​

You don't need an introduction
You were there for me when everybody else wasn't
I'ma say you're perfect and I'm not even frontin
'Cause I love you more than life itself
Mom, if these walls could talk
They'd have a awfully hard time finding you at fault
They'd probably speak of every time that you were there to listen
Or about the time you told me she don't know what she's missing
Do you remember? The girl, we went to prom together
I tried to make a move it didn't go how I expected
And she didn't want me back so I slipped into a depression
Until I wrote my first song and felt so much better
But perhaps most important
Is that you've always been supportive
From picking up bass to recording
Green back in Oregon

I can't really say we ever argue or fight
Although at time I've gotta tell you the same thing twice
But I don't really care 'cause on the cold winter nights you'd say

Cold hands, warm heart
Waste gives birth to live and it's all a part
Of the process it's everything and it's who we are
Channel your thoughts and I promise that you'll go far
And if you ever feel cold just know that you've got a warm heart

I need a mom and Ev day
The ones we used to take in the first grade
When I wrote fewer songs and had fewer cares
You'd take me to the most up in Armory Square
And I just realized how much I loved braces
"cause even though they sucked we got to go places together
You'd pick me up early from school
But right now I just wanna talk to you

About your unconditional love for me
And you showed me it's really all up to me
And when life wasn't always that lovely you'd say

Cold hands, warm heart
Waste gives birth to live and it's all a part
Of the process it's everything and it's who we are
Channel your thoughts and I promise that you'll go far
And if you ever feel cold just know that you've got a warm heart

Last time I went home
And I cried to you it just went to show
What you bring out of me

'Cause I used to be 17
And now I'm not where I thought I'd be at 23
But you said you love me regardless of what I grow up to be

You said, cold hands, warm heart
Doubt wastes energy, it's not who you are
You've got so much in store just keep working hard
Channel your thoughts and I promise that you'll go far
And if you ever feel cold just know that you've got a warm heart
