Baby it's Cold Out

Outside my window
A leaveless tree encased in ice
Like my heart beating in my chest
I see you standing there
I'm feeling the heat rising in the room
Are you my spring thaw
Or a voyeur watching this snowman's doom?
Are you my savior?
Or just another flavor, I can't taste
Baby it's cold out
But really it's even colder deep inside
Are you going to be my heatwave?
Can you take me for a warming ride?

[Chorus]
Because there is cold and there's is hot
There is love and there is not
I need to know which you've got
Are you here to try and save me?
There is hot and there is cold
Can you really be all that bold?
Your love is so much hotter than gold
I can feel all the warmth that you gave me

The days are shorter
The nights are longer, and colder
The only thing gets me through
Is the thought of you
Yeah maybe I'm just dreaming
Maybe you don't feel the same way
Still you give me hope
For warmer days, ahead
Baby it's cold out
Please don't put the flame out
Because I need you
I need you so bad

~chorus~

Because baby there is cold
Baby there is not
Baby there is cool
And baby you are hot

The cold weather is sinking in. Wrote this while drinking hot chocolate looking out the window. Rhyme used sparsely which is different for me, but seemed to fit the vibe.
