Mason Jennings Lyrics: January

January
from The Flood

I woke in the evening
I was thinking bout you
God knows your neighbors
And honey I know you
And I just love the way you lay me down
The sweetest days are those we’ve not yet found
I took the corner with you by my side

And you were young but I was younger
You were new I was worn
I knew your face and I knew your number
I’ve known you since you were born
And gracious hallelujah reigned down from the heavens
And you took my hand and held it as we walked together and
Sweet glory on the day
That I fell in love with you

I was going to Minnestoa
I was on my way
I had made a promise
That I wouldn’t stay
But I just found all that I need
The open road became her open arms
I held on, I held on, I held on

And you were young but I was younger
You were new I was worn
I knew your face and I knew your number
I’ve known you since you were born
And you were young but I was younger
You were new I was worn
I knew your face and I knew your number
I’ve known you since you were born
And gracious hallelujah reigned down from the heavens
And you took my hand and held it as we walked together and
Sweet glory on the day
That I fell in love with you
