[Verse 1]
This is the fi
rst day of my
life
Swear I was bo
rn right in th
e doorway
I went out in
the rain, sudd
enly everythin
g changed
They're spread
ing blankets o
n the beach
Yours is the f
irst face that
I saw
Think I was bl
ind before I m
et you
Now I don't kn
ow where I am,
I don't know
where I've bee
n
But I know whe
re I want to g
o
[Chorus]
And so I thoug
ht I'd let you
know
Yeah these thi
ngs take forev
er
I especially a
m slow
But I realized
that I need y
ou and I wonde
red if I could
come home
[Instrumental]
[Verse 2]
Remember the t
ime you drove
all night
Just to meet m
e in the morni
ng
And I thought
it was strange
, you said eve
rything change
d
You felt as if
you'd just wo
ke up
And you said,
"This is the f
irst day of my
life.
I'm glad I did
n't die before
I met you.
But now I don'
t care, I coul
d go anywhere
with you,
And I'd probab
ly be happy."
[Chorus]
So if you want
to be with me
With these thi
ngs there's no
telling
We just have t
o wait and see
But I'd rather
be working fo
r a paycheck
Than waiting to win the lottery
Besides, maybe
this time it'
s different,
I mean I reall
y think you li
ke me
[Outro]
