Lyrics
[Verse 1]
She keeps it simple and I
Am thankful for her kind of lovin', 'cause it's simple
No longer do we wonder
If we're together, we're way past that and I've already asked her
[Verse 2]
So in January, we're gettin' married
[Verse 3]
She's talkin' to me with her
Voice down so low, I barely hear her
But I know what she's sayin'
I understand because my heart and hers are the same
[Verse 4]
And in January, we're gettin' married
[Verse 5]
And I was sick with heartache
And she was sick like Audrey Hepburn when I met her
But we would both surrender
True love is not the kind of thing you should turn down
[Verse 6]
Don't ever turn it down
[Verse 7]
I hope that I don't sound too
Insane when I say there is darkness all around us
I don't feel weak but I do
Need sometimes for her to protect me and reconnect me
To the beauty that I'm missing
[Verse 8]
And in January, we're gettin' married
[Verse 9]
No longer does it matter
What circumstances we were born in
She knows which birds are singin'
And the names of the trees where they're performin' in the mornin'
[Verse 10]
And in January, we're gettin' married
Come January, let's get married
