[Verse 1] We were just kids back then You could barely say my name Hands in your pockets Eyes on the floor Heart running faster than a train Four and a half years of talking Laughing through a midnight screen You on your pillow in your hometown Me chasing our little dream [Chorus] January 7th in Montana Suitcase shaking in my hand Snow on the sign at the state line I was coming to be your women From a quiet call to a front porch kiss Every mile just led to this January 7th in Montana That’s the day my life began [Verse 2] I remember that first airport You were leaning on the railing there Cheeks all red from the winter Trying to tame your hair You said “I’m still kind of nervous” I said “Me too But that’s alright” All those years of late-night talking Walked out into the light [Chorus] January 7th in Montana Suitcase shaking in my hand Snow on the sign at the state line I was coming to be your women From a quiet call to a front porch kiss Every mile just led to this January 7th in Montana That’s the day my life began [Bridge] Every time the world feels heavy And we don’t know what to do I think of that driveway That first “hello” How I started and ended with you (oh yeah) [Chorus] January 7th in Montana Suitcase shaking in my hand Snow on the sign at the state line I was coming to be your women From a quiet call to a front porch kiss Every mile just led to this January 7th in Montana That’s the day my life began Yeah January 7th in Montana That’s the day my life began
