On to Bethlehem

Lyrics

[Verse 1] So I'm at this wheel, it's 3 a.m Waiting for the caffeine to come around And life rears its ugly head again They say your radio's cool and retail's way down And i'd like to say I'm faithful To the task at hand Speaking gospel to a handful And others with their list of demands [Chorus] It's cold this year, and I'm late on my dues It's cold in here, ah, but that's nothing new My heart's electric with your love again So it's on to Bethlehem On to Bethlehem [Verse 2] You might surmise that I ran there But I really only crept Lead me to the place where love runs wild And then it dogs your every step You know how fickle my heart is Prone to wonder, my Lord Yeah, we talk, but it's at arm's length Always got one eye on the door [Chorus] It's cold this year, and I'm late on my dues It's cold in here, ah, but that's nothing new My heart's electric with your love again So it's on to Bethlehem On to Bethlehem [Verse 3] God wraps Himself up in human skin For those who wanna touch And God let them drive the nails in For those of us who know way too much And you come bearing all our burdens And take your lovers for a ride But we stay holed up in our cages Fashioned by our own design [Chorus] It's cold this year, and I'm late on my dues It's cold in here, ah, but that's nothing new My heart's electric with your love again So it's on to Bethlehem It's on to Bethlehem [Verse 4] So tell me, what is your secret? What's on your blister soul? What is that one little secret? You know, the one that has taken its toll 'Cause daddy's banging on your gate again Yeah, he won't leave you alone Got a whole lot of dry warm rooms In the finest of homes [Chorus] It's cold this year, and I'm late on my dues It's cold in here, ah, but that's nothing new My heart's electric with your love again So it's on to Bethlehem On to Bethlehem It's on to Bethlehem It's on to Bethlehem
