Watching This Town Freeze
I can sit here in the kitchen
and watch the birdbath freezing over
right before my eyes.
When you get silent on the phone
it seems like this whole town gets colder
always comes as a surprise.
Now the sudden chill has got
the local farmers none too pleased,
Robin Red Breast's out there screaming
froze up to his knees
as I'm watching this town freeze
wishing you would talk to me.
Every time we disagree
and the words drift down to nothing
I feel a frost upon my skin.
I get this feeling in my heart,
kinda like my car won't start, and
I hear the furnace kicking in.
Now they've found the local weatherman
out walking in a trance,
and there's signs on all the snowplows
saying, 'Give the boy and chance!'
'Cause we're watching this town freeze
We're all hoping you will talk to me
Any minute now
old Clara Barnes will check the mail
oblivious as usual on out the door she'll sail
and I'm not the kind to change
your mind with a guilt trip
but this whole town may blame you

if she falls and cracks her hip.
See we're watching this town freeze
And praying you'll just talk to me
Praying for one word
I will promise to be nice
just don't leave this town on ice
we'll never make it through the year
Darling, I know you're still sore
but I've got the mayor knocking on my door,
says we've got a crisis here
Sweet Luella's seven cats
are frozen hard as baseball bats
they stand like statues in her yard.
Hansen's truck ran in the ditch
it's the first time he's called his wife a
taxi
You know I hate to keep on calling
but the weather here's appalling
all the cars are stalling
and the mercury's still falling
My love,
mercy please
are you really gonna leave us here
to freeze
Don't leave us here to freeze
Don't leave me here to freeze.
