A long, long time ago, I can still remember how that music used to make me smile
I knew if I had my chance that I could make those people dance and maybe they'd be happy for a while
But February made me shiver with every paper I'd deliver
Bad news on the doorstep, I couldn't take one more step
I can't remember if I cried when I read about its widowed bride
Something touched me deep inside the day the music died
