This is the first day of my life 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 Don't know where I am, I don't know where I've been But I know where, you're where I want to go So I thought I'd let you know That these things take forever, I especially am slow But I realized that I need you And I wondered if you would come home Remember the time you drove all night Just to meet me in the morning Thought it was strange, you said everything changed You felt as if, as if you'd just woke up And you said: This is the first day of our lives I'm glad I didn't die before I met you 'Cos now I don't care, I could go anywhere with you And I'd probably be happy But if you want to be with me With these things there's no telling We'll just have to wait and see But I'd rather be working for a paycheck Than be hoping for the lottery But this time I think it's different I really think you like me
