Lyrics for February by Dar Williams:
| | | Artist: | Dar Williams |
| | Album: | Mortal City | | Track: | February | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 95 | | | | Lyrics: | 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
The everyday 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
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 ?
You know 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 shovelling
And we'd drop to sleep
exhausted
And we'd wake up and it's snowing
And February was so long that it lasted
into March
And found us walking a path alone together
You stopped and pointed and you said
"that's a crocus"
And I said "what's a crocus ?" and you said "it's a flower"
I tried to
remember but I said "what's a flower ?"
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
Because you never know how next year will
be
And we'll gather all our arms can carry
I have lost to February | | | |  Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link |
