I threw your keys in the water, I looked back
3 4 5 6 1
They'd frozen halfway down in the ice
2
They froze up so quickly, the keys and their owners
3 4 5 6
Even after the anger it all turns silent and
5 6
The everyday turned solitary,
7 3 4
So we came to February.

First we forgot where we'd planted those bulbs last year
4 5 6 1
Then we forgot that we'd planted at all
2
Then we forgot what plants are altogether
3 4 5 6
And I blamed you for my freezing and forgetting and
5 6
The nights were long and cold and scary,
7 3 4
Can we live through February?

You know I think Christmas was a long red glare
10 11 5 6
Shot up like a warning, we gave presents without cards
1
And then the snow, and then the snow came
9
We were always out shovelling
10 11 5 6 7 1
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
4 5 1
And found us walking a path alone together
2
You stopped and pointed and you said "that's a crocus"
3 4 5 6
And I said, "what's a crocus?" and you said, "it's a flower"
1 2
I tried to remember, but I said, "what's a flower?"
3 4 5 6 7 1
You said, "I still love you."

The leaves were turning as we drove to the hardware store
4 5 6 1
My new lover made me keys to the house
1 2
And when we got home, well we just started chopping wood
3 4 5 6
'Cause you never know how next year will be
5 6
And we'll gather all our arms can carry
7 3 4
I have lost to February.
