[Verse 1]

Burn up with t

he water
             
Floods are on 

        
the plains

The planets in

 a rose
    
Who knows what

 they contain?
       
And my brain i

s like an orch

estra
            
Playin on, ins

/
ane
         
Will you love 

me like you lo

ved me
             
In the january

 
 rain?




[Verse 2]

Mom and Dad an

Somber country

      
 silence

The needle sto

pped the kicki

ng
    
The clothespin

s on the floor
       
And my heart i

s playing hide

 and seek
             
Wait and count

    
 to four
         
Will you love 

me like you lo

ved me
             
and I'll never

         
 ask for more

Full of field

[Verse 3]

We overcome th

e sirens
             
We look both l

           
eft and right
           
And I can feel

              
 the numbness 


accompany my p

light
      
And I know tha

t someday soon

 I'll see you
             
But now you're

         
 out of sight
           
And you'll kis

s me like you 

used to
             
In the January

 
 night
