First Day of My Life by Bright Eyes

This is the first day of my life
Swear I was born right in the doorway
I went out in the rain, suddenly everything is changed
They're spreading blankets on the beach
Yours is the first face that I saw
Think I was blind before I met you
No I don't know where I am, don't know where I've been
But I know where I want to go
And so I thought I'd let you know
Yeah, these things take forever
I especially am slow
But I realize that I need you and
I wondered if I could come home.

Remember the time we 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 just woke up
You said this is the first day of my life
I'm glad I didn't die before I met you
And I'd probably be happy
But now I don't care, I could go anywhere
with you, and I'd probably be happy
So if you wanna to be with me
With these things there's no telling
We just have to wait and see
But I'd rather be working for a paycheck
Than waiting to win the lottery
Uh hum, ummhmm
besides maybe this time its different
cuz I really think you like meeeee.
