1
I met a man who drew the line
He couldn't cross his fear of intimacy
He just sighed
Because he left behind all his fantasy
ooh-hoo, ooh, woo, woo, yeah
If you build a wall up, high
You start to crumble
And you never know why
Your tears never dry
If you're running from the vision
That's in your eyes
There's a collision with what's inside
This ain't livin'
I need someone to hold
How did it get so cold
You say you need a little time
To heal from some romantic injury
And I say fine
But if you change your mind
You can lean on me
ooh, woo, woo, yeah
But I'm going on with my life, oh
I've seen it everyday
People get burned
And they throw love away
If you're running from the vision
That's in your eyes
There's a collision with what's inside
This ain't livin'
I need someone to hold
How did it get so cold
If you build a wall up, high
You start to crumble
And you never know why
Your tears never dry
If you're running from the vision
That's in your eyes
There's a collision with what's inside
This ain't livin'
I need someone to hold
How did it get so cold
Cold, so cold
Cold, so cold
Cold, cold, cold, cold
I need someone to hold
How did it get so cold
It's coming from the kitchen
It's coming from the sky
It's coming round the corner
Straight for you and I
It gets so cold...
He couldn't cross his fear of intimacy
He just sighed
Because he left behind all his fantasy
ooh-hoo, ooh, woo, woo, yeah
If you build a wall up, high
You start to crumble
And you never know why
Your tears never dry
If you're running from the vision
That's in your eyes
There's a collision with what's inside
This ain't livin'
I need someone to hold
How did it get so cold
You say you need a little time
To heal from some romantic injury
And I say fine
But if you change your mind
You can lean on me
ooh, woo, woo, yeah
But I'm going on with my life, oh
I've seen it everyday
People get burned
And they throw love away
If you're running from the vision
That's in your eyes
There's a collision with what's inside
This ain't livin'
I need someone to hold
How did it get so cold
If you build a wall up, high
You start to crumble
And you never know why
Your tears never dry
If you're running from the vision
That's in your eyes
There's a collision with what's inside
This ain't livin'
I need someone to hold
How did it get so cold
Cold, so cold
Cold, so cold
Cold, cold, cold, cold
I need someone to hold
How did it get so cold
It's coming from the kitchen
It's coming from the sky
It's coming round the corner
Straight for you and I
It gets so cold...

The lyrics are self-explanatory. The artist is amazing. So happy to have first heard her sing in the early 80's (not in person unfortunately). She has always had her own style. When sex was selling (as it does nowadays for female musicians), she was still just wacky flamboyant Cyndi. She knew she had the talent to sell her music without selling her body. LUV the woman!
