PRETENDERS - Chill Factor lyrics

rate me

She's getting older<br>Yeah, she's getting wise<br>But a change has changed the girl<br>Gone's the sparkle from her eyes<br><br>She wants to be a good mother<br>So she'll do the best she can<br>But what about the other<br>What about the man<br><br>Well it's cold to leave a woman<br>With family on her own<br>It's chill factor<br>To the bone<br><br>Resignation<br>In her sighs<br>Is a sorry indication<br>Of how time<br>Can brutalise<br><br>Take away the hope<br>And the will will follow<br>Take away the faith<br>And goodbye tomorrow<br><br>Well it's cold to leave a woman<br>With family on her own<br>It's chill factor<br>To the bone<br><br>She had her dreams too<br>But how can she pursue<br>Her ambitions, be they great or small<br><br>You took her wings and flew<br>But remember when you're through<br>Your rise was due<br>To somebody else's fall<br><br>When the hard part's over<br>And the kids are almost grown<br>You'll be their big hero<br>Whenever you make it home<br>Shower them with presents<br>Things she could never buy<br>Delight them with your stories<br>About the great big, great big world outside<br>But dig -<br><br>It's cold to leave a woman<br>With family on her own<br>It's chill factor<br>Chill factor<br>To the bone
