Cold Boy Smile

Cold Boy Smile has never been released by TBC but has been played 23 times live. It's also on the Brothers of a Feather album and DVD that Chris and Rich released together from a live, acoustic performance at the Roxy. Oh, and Cold Boy Smile is an amazing song! I don't know how I went so long without absolutely loving this song but once again, here I am . . . in love with yet another TBC song.

I can't imagine why Cold Boy Smile has never been released on a studio album and I'm not quite sure when it was written -- but it made its live debut on April 13, 2006 and was largely played in 2006 so I assume maybe 2005? Regardless, Cold Boy Smile is just gorgeous -- especially these lyrics "Some say that love is the poem of life / Some say that love is the pain of being alive," however I also love love love the chorus. Chris and Rich at their best!

I'll fetch you water from the well
If you sweep all the ashes out into the wind
As we sit by the candlelight again
Two moths that hover close to the light of morning

And how you made this cold boy smile
From the storm you took me weathered, weary and tired
And you showed me the lessons of simple things
How love made this cold boy sing

Some say that love is the poem of life
Some say that love is the pain of being alive
Some say there's nothing on the other side
Some have traded their souls for just a good time

And how you made this cold boy smile
From the storm you took me weathered, weary and tired
How you showed me the lessons of simple things
How love made this cold boy sing

When we are in harmony
When we are in harmony

And how you made this cold boy smile
From the storm you took me weathered, weary and tired
How you showed me the lessons of simple things
How love made this cold
How love made this cold
How love made this cold boy sing
