Lyrics:
Well honestly,
Honesty was never your best trait
Honestly, I still can’t believe
That it blew up in my face

I know you always told me that you’d never stick around
Thought I could change your mind
Well the only thing you thought to leave was my laundry and the bills
A couple of dollars and half page of words that told me this was real
You said it was enough to cover your half
You can have it back

Well the Colorado wind is blowin’ in
They said it’s gonna to snow
It hit me hard, rebroke my heart
When I smelt you on my coat
The fire that I built just ain’t enough
Guess you already knew that much

Cause when you left town
The temperature dropped down to 23
Oh the whiskey in the world won’t warm me up
Or so it seems
And the ugly truth about you and me
Is I always knew you’d leave
Leave me
Cold and lonely

You were a wildcat baby
and you never had the patience
It took to build a home
I bet it all that wherever you are
Isn’t where you want to go
The only place you linger in in my dreams
Oh, but I can’t sleep.

Cause when you left town
The temperature dropped down to 23
Oh the whiskey in the world won’t warm me up
Or so it seems
And the ugly truth about you and me
Is I always knew you’d leave
Leave me
Cold and lonely

Cause when you left town
The temperature dropped down to 23
Oh the whiskey in the world won’t warm me up
Or so it seems
And the ugly truth about you and me
Is I always knew you’d leave
Leave me
Why’d you have to leave me
Leave me
Cold and lonely
