Yeasayer - Cold Night Lyrics
It's been one year since you turned your
Self back into dust a temper tantrum
I'll never feel right I'm up at
Night I guess this is life you perish or
You survive
Was there something I could have told you
To carry you through the cold night
Would you hang on my every word
Was there nothing sacred you could hold onto
And carry you through the cold night
That's no way to make yourself heard
It's been five years Since you turned your-
Self back into dust, you'll never rust
Now the rest of us are perma-
Thought things had been
Looking up your life's
A bust
Was there something I
Could have told you
(could told you)
To carry you through the cold night
(Cold Night)
Would you hang on my every word (Hang on
My words, hang on my words on my every
Word)
Was there nothing sacred you could hold
Onto (Hold Onto)
And carry you through the cold night
(Cold Night)
That's no way to make yourself heard
(Make yourself heard that's no way to make
Yourself heard)
I regret all the times when I didn't
Respond to you, but the wires might have
Gotten
Crossed and anyway you were already
Lost, Already Lost...
To my daughter you'll be an ancient
Memory, If we even mention you at
All... Its too scary, It's too scary
It's too scary
Was there something I could have told you
(On that Cold Night) [x4]

Yeasayer Cold Night Comments
I absolutely love this song you know I feel so much more connected to yeasayer after this album got released the first love of my life my high school sweetheart how I thought I'd spend my life with he killed himself and knowing that that happened 2 the singers love I can't even put into words how close to my heart this song is
This is definitely one of those songs where I first listened to it, liked it, and then actually listened to the lyrics and it took on a whole other meaning and layering. Really the entire album is extremely interesting to consider from a lyric perspective.
I hope that this turn to single, it's so magic and emotional. Very beautiful song, the world needs to listen.
Such an amazing album
The start reminds me a bit of There There by Radiohead (my favourite band so a bonus for sure) but the rest, it's just a bit too bland musically for me. Like Yeasayer playing it too safe, or maybe it's the production.
I think this whole album is going to sound so much better live.
There's something real special about this album. Not quite sure what it is, but i don't think i've ever felt so strongly for an album as i do for this one.
It gets better the more you listen to it. I'm hearing and appreciating new things I missed when I first heard it on April 1st. Most of the songs shift and change as they progress, instead of repeating in a traditional format. I think this has added more depth than previous albums, and I also think they've been brilliant with layering multiple instruments. I love this particular song, but I also think it's the easiest for most people to listen to. IMO, it doesn't showcase the band's true talents.
Probably the most human song Yeasayer has ever created. Musically and lyrically, it's just instantly relatable.
I'm so glad you're back
+xfourxseasonsx do you recognize the image used for the 'Yayslayer' poster in the background? interesting choice
+Kristi Gogos yep
What's interesting about it? I'm confused :(
