Used as the title track for UF Core 3, aeons ago; reprised in Star-Crossed; probably to reappear at least once more in the relatively near future. A perennial favorite. RIP, Tom, you were one of the greats. --G.

The day fell down, the air got cold
I walked out in the street
Daydreamed for a mile or two
Staring at my feet
Like a working boy, out of luck
Falling through the cracks
Night rolled in, I turned back home
A hard wind at my back

I'm out in the cold
Out in the cold
Body and soul
Out in the cold
There's nowhere to go
Out in the cold
I'm out in the cold
Out in the cold

I woke up, my brain was stunned
I could not come around
I reached out to grab my keys
And tumbled to the ground
Thought of you, starry-eyed
I wonder where we stand
Did I just fall from your arms
Down into your hands?

I'm out in the cold
Out in the cold
Body and soul
Out in the cold
With nowhere to go
Out in the cold
I'm out in the cold
Out in the cold

I'm out
Standing in a doorway

I'm out
Walking around
Hands in my pockets

I'm out in the cold
Out in the cold
Body and soul
Out in the cold
With nowhere to go
Out in the cold
I'm out in the cold
Out in the cold
