Lyrics:

written by Warren Zevon 1995 Zevon Music BMI Once upon a time these stories always start There lived a handsome prince and he had a happy heart And a princess, too--she was a beautiful kid She said she'd never leave him but she did Sometimes love is wet and cold Similar to rain, just a hard to hold Love can make you sad and blue If you don't watch out it'll fall all over you Everybody knows that winter can be nice You can play in the snow, you can skate on the ice But you can't skate far when the ice gets thin 'Cause you might fall in Sometimes love is wet and cold Similar to rain, just as hard to hold Love can make you sad and blue If you don't watch out it'll fall all over you Gray skies everywhere Storm clouds know your name Sadness in the air Feels like rain Sometimes love is wet and cold Similar to rain, just a hard to hold Love can make you sad and blue If you don't watch out it'll fall all over you
