[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 is the f

#            
irst face that

              
 I saw
            
Think I was bl

             
ind before I m

        
et you
             
Don't know whe

           
re I am, don't

              
 know where I'

   
ve been
          
But I know whe

            
re I want to g

        
o

[Chorus]
             
So I thought I

        
'd let you kno

        
w
             
That these thi

            
ngs take forev

er
          
I especially a

         
m slow
             
But I realized

           
 how I need yo

             
u and I wonder

           
ed if I could 

         
come home 

  
   

[Verse 2]
             
I remember the

           
 time you drov

             
e all night 
            
Just to meet m

             
e in the morni

    
ng 
             
I thought it w

           
as strange, yo

              
u said everyth

            
ing changed 
          
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.
           
Now I don't ca

             
re, I could 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'll just hav

           
e to wait and 

        
see
              
But I'd rather

             
 be working fo

           
r a paycheck t

             
han waiting to

           
 win the lotte

 
ry 

  

[Outro]
             
Besides, maybe

              
 this time its

           
 different, I 

             
mean I really 

           
think you like

  
 me
