Black / Dove Songtext
von Tori Amos

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

Black dove, black dove
You′re not a helicopter
You're not a cop out either, honey
Black dove, black dove
You don′t need a spaceship
They don't know you've already lived


On the other side of the galaxy
The other side of the galaxy
The other side of the galaxy

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

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


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

On the other side of the galaxy
The other side of
The other side of the galaxy

But I have to get to Texas
Said I have to get to Texas
Said I'll give away my blue dress because
Cowboy, the snakes, they are my kin
Are my kin, ah-hey

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
Black dove
