In the winter it was so so cold The fish all died, the fall of crows There was nothing left for the crows to do but wait And they said They said being here is better than wishing we'd stayed Yes being here is seeming to be the way Oh being here is better than wishing we had stayed They stayed under water for so so long They wait for the spring when the ice will thaw And frozen parts will be filled with song The sun filtered down through all them waves And they said They said being here is better than wishing we'd stayed Yes being here is seeming to be the way Being here is like breathing on the hottest day I think I would rather suffocate Last summer they said it was so so hot Two lovers did drown their dreams were sunk While their bodies were lost their souls stayed around They stayed underwater most go underground And they said They said being here is better than wishing we'd stayed (being here is better) Yes being here is seeming to be the way (x4) (than wishing we'd stayed)
