January

We were talking all night long I'm whispering the same old song in your ear January will be different baby Let's get through the new year You were honest when you said that you couldn't do that The season had already been too much for you Your love changed when the leaves did From red and yellow to grey January will be different We won't have to stay inside We can shake the dust from our bones And live a new life The scars on your arms Tell tales of the love and the lies that bled you dry Bruises from the sticks and stones The words that do you harm never heal right Let me hold you through the night Through your fear and through your strife And let me pull the venom from your veins January will be different We won't have to stay inside We can shake the dust from our bones And live a new life January will be different We won't have to stay inside We can shake the dust from our bones And live a new life Maybe this year will be different Maybe you'll learn to love again Maybe the words will ring Crystal loud and clear
