Video clip

It's cold outside
And the paints peeling off of my walls
There's a man outside
In a long coat, grey hat, smoking a cigarette

Now the light fades out
And i wonder what i'm doing in a room like this
There's a knock on the door
And just for a second i thought i remembered you

So now i'm alone
Now i can think for myself
About little deals
And s.u's
And things that i just don't understand
A white lie that night
Or a sly touch at times
I don't think it meant anything to you

So i open the door
It's the 'friend' that i'd left in the hallway
'please sit down'
A candle lit shadow on a wall near the bed

You know i hate to ask
But are 'friends' electric ?
Only mine's broke down
And now i've no-one to love

So i find out your reason
For the phone calls and smiles
And it hurts
And i'm lonely
And i should never have tried
And i missed you tonight
It must be time to leave
You see it meant everything to me
