lyrics

January sun
Makes me want to run until it's gone
Take and not return, all the light and all the sound

We'll blaze the biggest trail
A sign so they can tell which road we're on
Steal another day, can we step lightly on the ground?

I thought I knew (you could be true)
You told me to (under the moon)

Hats off in the school
No use being cool, you see right through
The picture's in between
When I see green, and you see blue

Walking in the sun, try to make it fun it comes out wrong
The ice will make a pool
That reflects your light, like a crescent moon

I thought I knew (you could be true)
You told me to (under the moon)

Under the moon
I thought I knew
I guessed too soon

Lately I've been drawn,
To looking at the sun, I wish I knew
The 50 different ways,
To make the rules and fix the game

Yesterday's all gone,
Here comes another dawn you can't undo
I don't believe in ghosts but it haunts me still,
To hear your name
