Newfoundland Weather (Colleen Power)

It's cold enough out to cut you in two,
It's in your bones and it goes right through you;
It's thick of fog and you can't see across the road.

Now the sun is splitting the rocks above me,
Me in the middle of peace talks;
Maybe we'll wait and decide our fate when summer's over.

Oh, we can be like Newfoundland weather,
We're hard to predict, can it get any better?
We have thunder and lightning and a love turning sour,
Conditions are subject to change in the hour.

No, we shouldn't beat it to death,
But maybe there's hope for us yet;
Patterns are shifting, a calm spell is here, so we're on hold.

Pile all the blankets on,
Don't jump to conclusions that winter is gone;
Close the windows 'cause tonight it might snow.

Oh, we can be like Newfoundland weather,
We're hard to predict, can it get any better?
We have thunder and lightning and a love turning sour,
Conditions are subject to change in the hour.

All winter long, we were so down,
It happens when the sun don't come out;
A cold front is coming in from the northeast just to test your soul.

Oh, we can be like Newfoundland weather,
We're hard to predict, can it get any better?
We have thunder and lightning and a love turning sour,
Conditions are subject to change in the hour.
Conditions are subject to change in the hour.
Conditions are subject to change....
