January you have
Come to greet me with a secret smile
What you wanna say
Tell me February's
Gonna make me happy over time
In a million ways
Cause i'm marching into madness
And i think i need a road map

Cause 20 years have come and gone
And i can't remember half the things i've done
Or who i was to bring me here today
And i want a photograph
Of every month i've ever had
Cause they go so fast and i just want one to stay
But it doesn't work that way

April, don't you know
You bring the rain, it overflows the city drains
It weighs my walking down
And May, oh maybe you will
Shine a light on me to keep me warm
And show me that you missed me
Just like i miss the june bugs
When we sit and watch the fireworks

Cause 20 years have come and gone
And i can't remember half the things i've done
Or who i was to bring me here today
And i want a photograph
Of every month i've ever had
Cause they go so fast and i just want one to stay
But it doesn't work that way

August comes, September goes
And soon the pumpkin's getting all the love
But he's a selfish guy
And november i'll admit
You got a way of making me
Remember what i'm really thankful for
And i'll send my christmas cards
But it doesn't matter cause
No one's returning them anymore

Cause 20 years have come and gone
And i can't remember half the things i've done
Or who i was to bring me here today
And i want a photograph
Of every month i've ever had
Cause they go so fast and i just want one to stay
But it doesn't work that way
It doesn't work that way
No it doesn't work that way
