We Are Lions - January lyrics

rate me

This year, April fell in the fall

And staying warm this winter won't matter at all

I've been cold all summer long

It rained gold on sapphire streets

And we played it cool as if we didn't need the heat

But we did

That's why we didn't mind as we set ourselves on fire

Cold she is in the stare but warm she could be in my

January

I'd smile if you were here

Once I watched a girl who lied on her back in a field with jewels for eyes

I'd smile if you were here

A dozen doves lied on their side to protest the sky

"We'll never fly again"

I penned notes on sheets when I coundn't sleep

And rolled around in those words until covered in ink

If you could see me now, you could read me now

I've been cursed with puzzles and poems,

Piecing each together, words to bring you home

If you could hear this now, you could hear me now
