"Cold Blue Dawn" lyrics - KINGS OF LEON

As a kid I would visit
The home of the king
Rock and roll fantasies and dreams
Start to take hold
Follow me down the road

[Pre-Chorus:]
I imagined it different than this
Long nights in long cars lonely bliss
If only but it don't exist for long

[Chorus:]
Before the cold blue dawn
Got to go take care of you own
Before your time is come
Here today, gone tomorrow
All my love
On the wings of the snow white dove
You couldn't make it up
A father's love, a mother's long distance call

Far and wide it reaches
Beaches and streams
Ending the night with peaches and cream
"Don't you ever sleep" she screams to me
I'll never forget her as long as I live
She wanted more that I could give
I got me to get along with

[Chorus:]
Before the cold blue dawn
Got to go take care of you own
Before your time is come
Here today, gone tomorrow
All my love
On the wings of the snow white dove
You couldn't make it up
A father's love, a mother's long distance call
Long distance

[Bridge:]
I imagined it different than this
Long nights in long cars lonely bliss
If only but it don't exist

[Chorus:]
Before the cold blue dawn
Got to go take care of you own
Before your time is come
Here today, gone tomorrow
All my love
On the wings of the snow white dove
You couldn't make it up
A father's love, a mother's long distance call

[Outro:]
Cold blue dawn
