[Verse 1]
She was a January girl
She never let on how insane it was
In that tiny kinda scary house
By the woods, by the woods, by the woods, by the woods
By the woods, by the woods, by the woods, by the woods
[Chorus]
Black-dove, black-dove
You’re not a helicopter
You’re not a cop-out either
Black-dove, black-dove
You don’t need a spaceship
They don’t know you’ve already lived
[Post-Chorus]
On the other side of the galaxy
The other side of the galaxy
The other side of the galaxy
[Verse 2]
She had a January world
So many storms not right somehow
How a lion becomes a mouse
By the woods, by the woods, by the woods, by the woods
By the woods, by the woods, by the woods, by the woods
[Refrain]
But I have to get to Texas
Said I have to get to Texas
And I’ll give away my blue, blue dress
Blue dress
[Chorus]
Black-dove, black-dove
You’re not a helicopter
You’re not a cop-out either
Black-dove, black-dove
You don’t need a spaceship
They don’t know you’ve already lived
[Post-Chorus]
On the other side of the galaxy
The other side of...
The other side of the galaxy
[Refrain]
But I have to get to Texas
Said I have to get to Texas
And I’ll give away my blue dress
Because, cowboy, the snakes
They are my kin, are my kin
[Outro]
She had a January girl
She never let on how insane it was
In that tiny kinda scary house
By the woods, by the woods, by the woods, by the woods
By the woods, by the woods, by the woods, by the woods
By the woods, by the woods, by the woods
