The t.v. was on for hours at a time
It filled up a gap in the heart of my life
Where there was no love and no one to talk with
I felt out of place, like the world was not right
I wanted to change something, make my mark
Be a light, to be someone who meant something to someone
But that night her doorway was open to me
And the night lights burned until morning
Cool love create something from nothing
And pleasure itself was a world without end
We were its greatest explorers
Cool love, create something from nothing
Morning came quickly, zooming into the room
Light darted and bounced and the world was renewed
The heat of her body was a balm to my pain
And I forgot what it was to be lonely
A cup of black coffee, fresh air and a walk
From Redland down Zetland Road to Stokes Croft
Slipping through the crowds I headed to my place
To the same room, the same air, the silence, the stillness
The ache...
And as loneliness takes another hour of my life
As its voice wears away at my courage
Cool love, create something from nothing
And if God is alive anywhere in this life
Oh please answer these prayers that I offer
Cool love, create something from nothing
