[Verse 1]
This is the first day of my life
I swear I was born right in the doorway
I went out in the rain; suddenly, everything changed
They're spreading blankets on the beach
Yours is the first face that I saw
I think I was blind before I met you
Now I dont know where I am
I dont know where Ive been
But I know where I'd like to be
[Chorus]
And so, I thought Id let you know
That these things take forever
I'm especially slow
But I realize that I need you
And I wondered if I could come home
Oh
[Verse 2]
I remember the time you drove all night
Just to meet me in the morning?
And I thought it was strange, you said everything changed
You felt as if you'd just woke up
And you said This is the first day of my life
Im glad I didnt die before I met you
But now, I dont care; I could go anywhere with you
And Id probably be happy
[Chorus]
So if you want to be with me
With these things, theres no telling
We'll just have to wait and see
But Id rather be working for a paycheck
Than waiting to win the lottery
Oh
