[Intro]
[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 was the
first face tha
t I saw
I think I was
blind before I
met you
I don't know w
here I am, I d
on't know wher
e I've been
But I know whe
re I want to g
o
[Chorus]
And so I thoug
ht I'd let you
know
That these thi
ngs take forev
er
I especially a
m slow
But I realized
that need you
And I wondered
if I could co
me home

[Verse 2]
I remember the
time you drov
e 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 just woke
up
And you said "
This is the fi
rst 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 wann
a be with me
With these thi
ngs there's no
telling
We'll just hav
e to wait and
see
But I'd rather
be working fo
r a paycheck
Than waiting t
o win the lott
ery
Besides, maybe
this time is
different
I mean, I real
ly think you l
ike me
