Lyrics January First - New Found Land

January First

This could be the start
Of a new beginning
A new year’s dawn
So open up the curtains gently
Open your up head
And let the morning
Airify your thoughts
And all the things you said
You didn’t really mean them
Did you, did you
You make it all too hard
For yourself and for the others
I am on your side
But sometimes I miss the colours
When all turns black & white
All turns monochrome
All turns short-sighted
But I am
Not gonna let it
Not gonna let it
Not gonna let it die
Not gonna let it
Skip the eyeglass
But see yourself
In the two way mirror
Remember all the past
But try to turn it all
Into something
Spend a minute on
Reflecting a bit upon how you
Would like to carry on
If you want to get along
With the ones that care for you
No matter how much
How much they can annoy
Or hurt you
Not gonna let it
Not gonna let it
Not gonna let it die
Not gonna let it
