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 turns silent


Nearly every day turns solitary
G we came to February

First we forgot where we planted those bulbs last year
And then we forgot that we'd plant at all
then we forgot what plants are all together
and I blamed you for my
freezing and forgetting and

The nights were cold ang long and scary
Will we last through february?

And I think Christmas was a long red glare
shut 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
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 hom, well we just started chopping wood
'Cause you never know how next year will be
and we'll gather all our arms can carry

I have lost to february.
