《February》歌词

[00:00:00] February - Dar Williams

[00:00:16] I threw your keys in the water I looked back

[00:00:21] They'd frozen halfway down in the ice

[00:00:29] They froze up so quickly the keys and their owners

[00:00:34] Even after the anger it all turned silent

[00:00:40] And the everyday turned solitary so we came to February

[00:00:58] First we forgot where we'd planted those bulbs last year

[00:01:04] And then we forgot that we'd planted it all

[00:01:11] Then we forgot what plants are altogether

[00:01:17] And I blamed you for my freezing and forgetting

[00:01:23] And the nights were long and cold and scary can we live through February

[00:01:41] You know I think Christmas was a long red glare

[00:01:46] Shot up like a warning we gave presents without cards

[00:01:52] And then the snow and then the snow came

[00:01:55] We were always out shoveling and we dropped to sleep exhausted

[00:02:02] Then we wake up and it's snowing

[00:02:10] And February was so long that it lasted into March

[00:02:16] And found us walking a path alone together

[00:02:23] You stopped and pointed and you said "That's a crocus"

[00:02:28] And I said "What's a crocus " And you said "It's a flower"

[00:02:35] I tried to remember but I said "What's a flower "

[00:02:41] You said "I still love you"

[00:02:56] The leaves were turning as we drove to the hardware store

[00:03:01] My new lover made me keys to the house

[00:03:08] And when we got home well we just started chopping wood

[00:03:14] Because you never know how next year will be

[00:03:20] And we'll gather all our arms can carry I have lost to February
