January 7

The week after Thanksgiving, I was born
November 28, I bet that day was great
The fifth generation in the house where we were staying
Ain't that wild

A fast fourteen months later, you were born
January 7, I bet that day was heaven
Back and forth to the country
While your daddy served his country for awhile

In the Fall, a few years later, started school
You came a year behind me
And I remember blindly
Always hearing your name, from the 1st or 2nd grade
Never forgot it

But if I ever lose my memory
Or if they ever write my history
Let them say, there never was a day when I didn't love you

The early 2000's are still a blur
How I hated high school
Just stuck inside the mouthfuls of the words that I was spewing
No clue what I was doing, and no one cared

But when I finally got the nerve up to call you on the phone
Right then I knew I'd never give up, no matter how long
It would take to convince you
Somehow I just knew we were meant to be

But if I ever lose my memory
Or if they ever write my history
Let them say, there never was a day when I didn't love you

Hardly recall a time before you
Or remember life without you
And that's more than okay
In fact I wouldn't have it any other way

But if I ever lose my memory
Or if they ever write my history
Let them say, there never was a day
Let them say, oh let them say
I hope they say
There never was a day when I didn't love you
