[Gnash:]
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,
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
That these things take forever,
I especially am slow,
But I realize that I need you,
And I wondered if I could come home.
[Goody Grace:]
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 had 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 now I don't care, I could go anywhere with you
And I'd probably be happy.”
[Gnash & Goody Grace:]
So if you want 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.
Besides, maybe this time is different,
I mean, I really think you like me.
