and we sleep at different times
And the warm wind in the palm trees
hasn't helped to change our minds
It was the lure of the tropics
that I thought might heal the scars
Of a love burned out by silence
in a marriage by this heart
And I call the kids on the telephone
and say there's something
It's July but it's cold as Christmas
in the middle of the year
The tem perature's up to 95
but there's a winter look
So how come it's as cold as Christmas
In the middle of the year?
I dreamed of love in a better climate
And for what it's really worth
I put faith in the star we followed
But there's an icy fringe on everything
And I cannot find the lines
Why the frost in the summertime?
And I call the kids on the telephone,
it's July but it's cold as Christmas
in the middle of the year.
The temperature's up to 95,
but there's a winter look
in your mother's eye and to melt
Melodies, there's a heatwave here,
so how come it's as cold as Christmas,
in the middle of the year?
The temperature's up to 95,
but there's a winter look
in your mother's eyes, that's
Melodies, there's a heatwave here,
So how come it's as cold as Christmas
In the middle of the year?
