[Verse 1]
Well, there's a difference in the way that you kissed me
There's a sadness in your eyes that you can't hide
Why do you tremble when I hold you?
I wonder if you feel the same, I felt the chill before the winter came
But it's easy to say that I won't give in again
I was just tempted for a moment and then some
But it's so easy when you love to lose control
Now look here, if you will, at the faithful man you stole

[Chorus]
I felt the chill before the winter came
Suffered the guilt and then accepted the blame
I wanted you before you ever spoke my name

[Bridge]
But I knew that we would go wrong
Just as they do in all of those old tragic songs
Did that melody haunt your mind? Just like a linger of perfume
Now you're in someone else's arms locked up in another room

[Verse 2]
Is there a difference in the way that he loves you
Is there still sadness in your eyes you can't deny?
Do you tremble and sigh when he holds you just like i do?
What were you thinking of to throw away our love?
And it's easy to say that you won't give in again
You were just tempted for a moment and a half
But it's so hard when you desire to lose control
I don't know what this feeling is but it sure seems cold
[Chorus]
I felt the chill before the winter came
Suffered the pain and then accepted the shame
I will have lost your love by end of this sad refrain

[Outro]
I felt the cold creeping over my skin
Still as the air until the wind rushed in
Still in control, holding on to my heart and soul
Only inches from sin
