[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
Don’t know where I am, don’t know where I’ve been
But I know where I want to go

[Chorus 1]
And so I thought I’d let you know
That these things take forever
I especially am slow
But I realize how I need you
And I wondered if I could come home
Mhm mhm

[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
I’m glad I didn’t die before I met you
But I don’t care, I could go anywhere with you
And I’d probably be happy”
[Chorus 2]
So 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 waiting to win the lottery
Aha mmm
Besides, maybe this time is different
I mean, I really think you like me
Mhm mhm
Ahaa
