Songtexte

I threw your keys in the water, I looked back
They'd frozen halfway down in the ice
They froze up so quickly, the keys and their owners
Even after the anger, it all turned silent and
Every day turned solitary
So we came to February
First we forgot where we planted those bulbs last year
Then we forgot that we'd planted at all
And then we forgot what plants are altogether
And I blamed you for my freezing and forgetting and
The nights were long and cold and scary
Can we live through February?
And I think Christmas was a long red glare
Shot up like a warning, we gave presents without cards
And then the snow
And then the snow came, we were always out shoveling
And we'd drop to sleep exhausted
And we'd wake up and it's snowing
And February was so long it lasted into March
And found us walking a path alone together
You stopped and pointed
And you said, "That's a crocus" (That's a crocus)
And I said, "What's a crocus?" (What's a crocus?)
And you said, "It's a flower" (It's a flower)
And I tried to remember but I said, "What's a flower?"
And you said, "I still love you"
The leaves were turning as we drove to the hardware store
My new lover made me keys to the house
And when we got home, well we just started chopping wood
'Cause you never know how the next year will be
And we'll gather all our arms can carry
I have lost to February
