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
