Three Months Lyrics
You always hated
Every gorgeous coffee cup
You could never see that
That to him they meant the world
I am ready
You know
I am ready
To feel you
I am ready
You know
I am ready
To feel you
I keep on calling
Just to get the machine
I've got to go on now
Having thought this was your last year
I am ready
You know
I am ready
To feel you
I am ready
You know
I am ready
To feel you
Every gorgeous coffee cup
You could never see that
That to him they meant the world
You know
I am ready
To feel you
I am ready
You know
I am ready
To feel you
Just to get the machine
I've got to go on now
Having thought this was your last year
You know
I am ready
To feel you
I am ready
You know
I am ready
To feel you

I was afraid "Hummingbird" wouldn't stand a chance against their first album, "Gorilla Manor". But, I should have had faith because this album is perfection. And this song, there aren't enough words to describe how beautiful it is.
I'm not much help when it comes to figuring out meaning in songs, but I couldn't agree with you more. I've listened to this album about ten times in the last two days...can't get enough.

A song about death & mourning.
The title "Three Months" refers to a short amount of time in this context, like "Three Months Left To Live." The line about "having thought this wasn't your last year" is the indicator. Calling an answering machine just to hear the prerecorded voice ... "Letting you know I am ready to feel you" sounds like the speaker is ready to feel the loss and deal with the absence. It can be a big decision to let the waves of mourning hit you fully, without distraction or dulling.
Good point. Another indicator is that just prior to the development of the first chorus when they sing "I'm ready to feel you"...just before that, there's a suspended note that goes on and on much like the sound a life support device makes when a dying patient goes flatline.

I actually wondered if 3 months referred to someone who had Pancreatic Cancer since that's typically the diagnosis of time left to live when it is found in the body by a doctor.

Beautiful song. Jumped out at me. Probably because the girl I love & I are spending time apart. But I think Way_ae might be onto something with the meaning. The thing is, when you lose someone you love. Whether it is through death or seperation, it is still a mourning process.
