January First

[Verse 1]
Making soft foot illusions at the end of December
To walk a little slower then try to talk cleaner
If I'm particularly ambitious, I'll wake before the sun-up
We'll cook more together and try not to ever fall asleep with the light switch on

[Chorus]
'Cause January first will be here, ready or not

[Verse 2]
I can be too careful, you can be too kind
I can be too sorry, you can be too right
And we can be too knowing, we can be too wise
If we both stay quiet, it'll keep us blind

[Chorus]
'Cause January first will be here, ready or not
And one way or another, I love you more than I thought

[Verse 3]
There's a comfort in knowing how a story ends
Maybe that's why I don't mind when you tell the same ones
Over and over and over again

[Chorus]
Because January first will be here, we'll make it or not
And one way or another, I love you more than I thought
Oh, more than I thought
