A song I wrote some time ago. I hope you all enjoy it. Lyrics below:

January

Verse 1:

I'll try my best not to cry
But it's hard to stomach sorrow

Each day, thank God you're alive

And I'll catch you on the flip side

I could hardly even breathe
But I made it through the service
And wiped my tears on my sleeve
As I sat and wondered why

Chorus

Since that January night
And things have gotten better
But they'll never be all right
As I lie awake in bed
I remember what you said
And now I

Chorus 2:
Take life one step at a time
Each day, I thank God I'm alive
I promise, that I'll be just fine
And I'll catch you on the flip side
And I won't drink and drive
