January

Took a minute

To imagine home

Without you in it

My first thoughts

And first steps

I used to imitate the words you said

Now flashing lights

And dark clouds

Pull up in your driveway

As sun shines

In your bed

Oh, you were my first friend

Hold on for me

'Cause I'll be there in January, oh

No, don't you leave

I've lost the words, they don't come easy

But all the songs you used to love

And all the stars that shine above for you

Will say the words that I can't say

Summertime's

In full bloom

We used to put on plays in your living room

As birds fly

In your skies

They're guardian angels in my eyes

If they fix you up

Will you remember?

Your first thoughts

And first steps

I'll teach you my name when you forget

Hold on for me

'Cause I'll be there in January, oh

No, don't you leave

I've lost the words, they don't come easy

But all the songs you used to love

And all the stars that shine above for you

Will say the words that I can't say

I see all the planets forming

And one day we'll be where the angels are calling

Hold on for me

'Cause I'll be there in January, oh

No, don't you leave

I've lost the words, they don't come easy

But all the songs you used to love

And all the stars that shine above for you

Will say the words that I can't say

Say the words that I can't say
