Put your coat on, love
it's raining hard again today.

A rain like the day my uncle died.
and I couldn't see the road as
I sped through the December night.
and I wouldn't talk to my sister
because I had nothing I could
say.

Put your coat on, darling
the streets are full of ice again.

ice like the fear as I drove through the hills
my tank almost on empty.
No street lights no city in sight.
And I couldn't talk to anyone
this forest has never seen a cell
tower.

Put your coat on, dear
it's cold again today.

It's freezing and a coat won't warm the cold in me.
