She was a January girl
She never let on how insane it was
In that tiny kinda scary house
By the woods
By the woods
By the woods
By the woods

By the woods
By the woods
By the woods
By the woods

Black dove
Black dove
You're not a helicopter
You're not a cop out either
Honey, black dove
Black dove
You don't need a space ship
They don't know you've already lived
On the other side of the galaxy
The other side of the galaxy
The other side of the galaxy

But I have to get to Texas
Said I have to get to TEXAS
And I'll give away my blue blue dress

Black dove
Black dove
You don't need a space ship
They don't know you've already lived
On the other side of the galaxy
The other side of the galaxy
The other side of the galaxy

But I have to get to Texas
Said I have to get to Texas
And I'll give away my blue blue dress
And I'll give away my blue dress because
Cowboy, the snakes,
They are my kin, are my kin.

She has a January girl
She never let on how insane it was
In that tiny kinda scary house
By the woods
By the woods
By the woods
By the woods

By the woods
By the woods
By the woods
By the woods

By the woods
By the woods
By the woods
Black dove

Black Dove (January)

I am so sorry it's taken me this long to respond to this vid.

The connections you're drawing here are so amazing -- I love the recurring presence of Amy here, the reminder of their relationship but also of River's inheritance, their similarities in personality but also in universe-shattering relevance.

The intensity of the rapid cutting at the climax underscores all the timey-wimeyness of River's story and how she is at the heart of the exploding TARDIS and how she is central to so many critical events. It's not just how she must be at a certain place in a certain time for the Doctor, or for Amy and Rory, but also for the universe, and also, on a meta level, for the story to work out. For all the stories to work out.

This is a big impressive achievement and I know I'll get more out of it every time I watch.

I hope I made a good onion vid with layers and layers that peel off with rewatches.

You've reminded me to rewatch this right now, for which I thank you very much!
