    Lyrics:
    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 was the first face that I saw
    I think I was blind before I met you
    And 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
    Yeah, 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 come meet me in the morning?
    And it sounded so 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 now I wouldn’t care, I could go anywhere with you
    And I'd probably be happy"
    So if you wanna stick with me
    With these things there's no telling, child
    We’ll have to wait and see
    But I'd rather be working for a paycheck
    Than waiting to win the lottery, ah-ha, mm-hmm
    Besides, maybe this time is different
    I mean, I’m really feeling lucky

    I love this version. Super stoked on it. The original meant so much to me. But since he's left me it does not mean the same and it hurts to listen to it. Now I can listen to this version and not attach it to anyone specifically. ❤️ Hate it when that happens. When you're with someone for so many years and you have so many songs that are specifically for that relationship.
    Oh well, we move on, and then there are different versions... of songs, of relationships, of life. 🙃

      Hate that. Personally First Day of my life also became unlistenable for a long time because of a ex-partner. It takes time. One day you will smile and think back on how you couldn't listen to this song because of a person (as you listen to the song) and you will think about life and love and how everything changes and then the song will become even more beautiful

    I will hold you like the sky holds the clouds.
    Will you hold me back and not from anything but alone?
    I see my hope in your eyes.
    I talk to your projection, I butter her toast, I make her cups of coffee; cream and sugar?
    Good guess.
    I feel my tomorrow better being shared.
    I don’t fancy myself selfish or prude, but I hurt easy and I sense you’re capable of making warmth of this tundra I am.
    A body in commotion usually stays in commotion.
    I am swimming upstream, out of tidal vortex for an everlasting something, someone, for a limited, quantifiable amount of time.
    I’m hours away from detox at the place that you call work.
    The prettiest nurse ever mine eyes say
    trying to spare from an early hearse ride.”

    I stand by my 2 decade long theory that this isn't a love song. That when the tone shifts from "but i realized that I need you and I wondered if I could come home" to "remember the time YOU drove all night.." that these are two different people. One in love and the other settling. This isn't a love song. It is a song of one person being infatuated and the other settling because it's the easy thing to do.
