Band Quotes

  • Jack White: "I wrote that specifically for Meg. I wanted it [to] be half Mazzy Star and half Peggy Lee. I played it for her in my attic. Meg laughed, she liked it. That organ sound was from me lying down on the studio floor pressing the organ pedals. If you listen close you hear wood popping on the piano pedal. Toe Rag's scary to a lot of people. They don't want to be confined. But the limitations make you work."
  • Meg White: "I've been singing more live, doing backups and we do that one Loretta Lynn cover. So, when we went in to record the album, Jack had actually written a song for me, He was like 'It's kinda like Peggy Lee Fever-esque.' I was like, 'Are you kidding? You think I can sing that?' I like it, I guess."

Trivia

  • On live versions of this song, Meg usually plays the organ while Jack plays the guitar.

Lyrics

I saw you standing in the corner, on the edge of a burning light. I saw you standing in the corner. Come to me again in the cold, cold night. You make me feel a little older, like a full-grown woman might. But when you're gone, I grow colder. Come to me again in the cold, cold night. I hear you walking by my front door. I hear the creaking of the kitchen floor. I don't care what other people say. I'm going to love you anyway. Come to me again in the cold, cold night. I can't stand it any longer. I need the fuel to make my fire bright. So don't fight it any longer -- come to me again in the cold, cold night. And I know that you feel it, too, when my skin turns into glue. You will know that it's warm inside, and you'll come run to me, in the cold, cold night.
