January 3rd Songtext

von Sivert Høyem

How could I show myself to you?
It seems a stupid thing to do
A rushed and senseless leap of faith
Now I've not slept for three days straight
January third has found me waiting
January third has found me waiting

Anyway you're not impressed
I was not expecting you to be
I don't know who you came to see
You were a downright mystery
January third has found me waiting
January third has found me waiting

I was not playing by the rules
I guess you pushed me away
When under the North Star we did stray
Then I called you on the second day
January third has found me waiting
January third has found me waiting

Time becomes a raging river
I'm on this drifting riverboat
Wearing a boatman's overcoat
Hangin' by one fingernail by the rail
Under a black sail
January third has found me waiting
January third has found me waiting
