This is the first day of my life I swear I was born right in that doorway I went out in the rain so that everything changed They are spreading Blankets on the beach Yours is the first face that I saw I swear I was blind before I met you And I don't know where I am I don't where I've been But I Know where I want to go And so I Thought I'd let you know That these things take forever I especially am slow But I realize that I need ya And I wondered if you could Come home Come home Remember the time you drove all night Just to meet me in the morning I thought it was strange You said everything changed You felt as if You just woke up And you said This is the first day of my life I'm glad that I didn't die before I met you And now I don't care I could go anywhere with you Would I probably be happy If you wanna be with me With these things, there's no telling You'll just have to wait and see But I'd rather be working for a paycheck Then waiting to win the lottery (The lottery, yeah) This is the first day of my life This is the first day of my life
