Return To January
It's so good to see that you're happy,
Bright smile, a great guy, tell me, is he?
I can't wait to meet him.
You're doing great, beginning to cheer again,
You text me every now and then.
You're keeping distance and I understand.
'Cause on our final moment I left you,
A kiss that you still can't forget.
You handed me comfort and I simply waved goodbye...
So here I am owning up to my mistake,
Laying in the street with my heart for you to take.
And I return to January every single day.
It seems like walking away is just an excuse,
For not telling you what I really wanted to say.
I'd return to January, stop you and scream it all out loud.
I return to January every single day.
Lately, I've been staying in my bed,
Under covers, trying to get it out of my head.
That you found happiness and I didn't congratulate you.
Then all our memories come flooding back in,
You and I in my car with your hair blowing in the wind.
And how I should have told you the truth.
Now the tears come, silently descending from my green eyes to the floor,
You tried so hard but I still walked right out the door...
So here I am owning up to my mistake,
Laying in the street with my heart for you to take.
And I return to January every single day.
It seems like walking away is just an excuse,
For not telling you what I really wanted to say.
I'd return to January, stop you and scream it all out loud.
I return to January every single day.
I recall your soft lips, your angel voice, so beautiful, so perfect,
As you fell sound asleep on me, I liked it.
But I let you go that very minute.
Here we are fading to dust,
Maybe I could have saved us.
And if you came back, I promise I wouldn't let you go.
I'd have spoken up but it wouldn't have prevented the fight,
And now if you're forgetting me, it's alright...
But here I am owning up to my mistake,
Laying in the street with my heart for you to take.
And I return to January.
It seems like walking away is just an excuse,
For not telling you what I really wanted to say.
I'd return to January, stop you and scream it all out loud.
I'd return to January, stop you and make you so proud.
I return to January every single day.
Every single day...
