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 are spreading plane tickets on the beach.
Yours was the first face that I saw.
I think I was blind before I met you.
Now I don’t know where I am.
I don’t know where I’ve been.
But I know where I want to go.
And so I thought I’d let you know
If these things take forever,
I especially am slow
But I realized that I need you
And I wondered if I could come home
Remember the time you drove all night,
Just to meet me in the morning.
And I thought it was strange
You said everything changed too fast
As if you just woke up
And then you said: this is the first day of my life
I am glad I didn’t die before I met you
But now I don’t care
I could go anywhere with you
And I probably will be happy
So if you wanna be with me,
With these things there is no telling
You’ll just have to wait and see
But I’d rather be working for a pay check
Than waiting to win the lottery.
Besides, maybe this time is different,
I mean I really think you like me
