Lyrics
They call me a pale girl
Who lives in a dark house
And sings to the moon
And hasn't got all of her head
I'm January girl
In my January world
In a black black room
And no one ever visits me
It's insanity
There's a crowd in my head
And a tear on my cheek
January is cold
January is winter
January is lonely
Through the eyes of the pale girl
I'm mending the pieces
Of my black broken heart
One by one again
Soon I'll have to do it once more
I'm January girl
I bake January cakes
In a dirty oven
I eat them though they taste bitter
Chorus
And every once in a while in my January world
There's a bright June sun
That warms my January heart
For a little while...
Chorus
See, I am the pale girl
Living in a dark house
I drink January water
Sleep, January girl
