Aquarius

Regina Spektor · Other Songs - Regina Spektor

Dear someone listening in the shadows

I only talk to you sometimes

And though I ask for help in riddles

It is clearer in my mind

Clearer in my mind

Born of a sign that carries vessels

But in a month that's cold as ice

I know I question things too quickly

But I have never questioned if I've loved

Dear someone watching from the shadows

I'm clenching water in my fists

The drops, they slip right through my fingers

But there's water on my lips

Water on my lips

Born of a sign that carries vessels

But in a month that brings just ice

I know I question things too quickly

But I've never wondered if I've loved

Dear someone watching from the shadows

You've seen me lose all the water from my hands

I'm not a skillful water carrier

But the raindrops keep falling on my head

Falling on my head

Born of a sign that carries water

But in a month that brings just ice

I'm not a skillful water carrier

But I've learned to carry love

learned to carry love

I'm not a skillful water carrier

But I've learned to carry love, love, love
