Joan Baez - February lyrics

Your rating:
They'd frozen half way 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'd 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 shoveling
 And we'd drop to sleep exhausted
 Then 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 the next will be
 And we'll gather all our arms can carry
 I have lost to February
