Lyrics
[Chorus]
In the night, I hear 'em talk (Night)
The coldest story ever told (Cold)
Somewhere far along this road (Far along this road)
He lost his soul to a woman so heartless (Soul, eh)
How could you be so heartless? (Eh)
Oh, how could you be so heartless?
[Verse 1]
How could you be so
Cold as the winter wind in the breeze, yo?
Just remember that you talkin' to me though
You need to watch the way you talkin' to me, yo
I mean, after all the things that we've been through
I mean, after all the things we got into
Hey yo, I know of some things that you ain't told me
Hey yo, I did some things, but that's the old me
And now you wanna get me back and you gon' show me
So you walk around like you don't know me
You got a new friend, well I got homies
But in the end it's still so lonely
[Chorus]
In the night, I hear 'em talk
The coldest story ever told
Somewhere far along this road
He lost his soul to a woman so heartless (Eh)
How could you be so heartless? (Eh)
Oh, how could you be so heartless?
[Verse 2]
How could you be so Dr. Evil?
You're bringin' out a side of me that I don't know
I decided we wasn't gon' speak so
Why we up three A.M. on the phone?
Why do she be so mad at me for?
Homie, I don't know she's hot and cold
I won't stop, I won't mess my groove up
'Cause I already know how this thing go
You run and tell your friends that you're leaving me
They say that they don't see what you see in me
You wait a couple months then you gon' see
You'll never find nobody better than me
[Chorus]
In the night, I hear 'em talk
The coldest story ever told (Eh, told)
Somewhere far along this road (Far along this road)
He lost his soul to a woman so heartless (His soul, eh)
How could you be so heartless? (Eh)
Oh, how could you be so heartless?
[Bridge]
Talkin, talkin', talkin', talk
Baby let's just knock it off
They don't know what we've been through
They don't know 'bout me and you
So I got something new to see
And you just gon' keep hatin' me
And we just gon' be enemies
I know you can't believe
I could just leave it wrong
And you can't make it right
I'm gon' take off tonight
Into the night
[Chorus]
In the night, I hear 'em talk
The coldest story ever told
Somewhere far along this road
He lost his soul to a woman so heartless
How could you be so heartless? (Ahh)
Oh, how could you be so heartless?
