Cold Day In July Lyrics By Dixie Chicks

    the moon is full and my arms are empty
    all night long i’ve pleaded and cried
    you always said the day that you would leave me
    would be a cold day in july
    your bags are packed not a word is spoken
    i guess we said everything with goodbye
    time moves so slow and promises get broken
    on this cold day in july

    sun’s comin’ up comin’ up down on main street
    children shout as they’re running out to play
    head in my hands
    here i am
    standing in my bare feet
    watching you drive away
    watching you drive away

    you said that we were gonna last forever
    you said our love would never die
    it looks like spring and
    it feels like sunny weather
    but it’s a cold day in july

    sun’s comin’ up comin’ up down on main street
    children shout as they’re running out to play
    head in my hands
    here i am
    standing in my bare feet
    watching you drive away
    watching you drive away

    the moon is full and my arms are empty
    all night long how i’ve pleaded and cried
    you always said the day that
    you would leave me
    would be a cold day in july
    here comes that cold day in july

    oh
    yeah
    oh yeah
    la da da la da da la da da
    oh ooo
