Calendar Girl

[Verse 1: Amy Millan]

If I am lost for a day, try to find me

But if I don't come back, then I won't look behind me

All of the things that I thought were so easy

Just got harder and harder each day

[Verse 2: Amy Millan]

December is darkest, in June, there's the light

But this empty bedroom won't make anything right

While out on the landing, a friend I forgot to send home

Who waits up for me all through the night

[Chorus: Torquil Campbell]

Calendar girl, who's in love with the world, stay alive

Calendar girl, who's in love with the world, stay alive

[Verse 3: Amy Millan]

I dreamed I was dying, as I so often do

And when I awoke I was sure it was true

I ran to the window, threw my head to the sky

And said, "Whoever is up there, please don't let me die"

[Verse 4: Amy Millan]

But I can't live forever, I can't always be

One day I'll be sand on a beach by the sea

The pages keep turning, I'll mark off each day with a cross

And I'll laugh about all that we've lost

[Chorus: Torquil Campbell]

Calendar girl, who is lost to the world, stay alive

Calendar girl, who is lost to the world, stay alive

[Outro: Amy Millan & Torquil Campbell]

January, February, March, April, May

I'm alive

June, July, August, September, October

I'm alive

November, December, yeah all through the winter

I'm alive

I'm alive
