Cold Day In July – Kalie Shorr (originally by Suzy Bogguss)

The moon is full, 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 and not a word is spoken
I guess we said everything with goodbye
Time moves so slow when 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

We said that we were gonna last forever
We 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
Oh, head in my hands here I am standing in my bare feet
Watching you drive away
Watching you drive away

The moon is full, 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…

Here comes that cold day in July
