The First Day of My Life Lyrics
Artist(Band):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 changed
They're spreadin' blankets on the beach
Yours is the first face that I saw
Think I was blind before I met you
I don't know where I am
I don't know where I've been
But I know where I want to go
So I thought I'd let you know
That these things take forever
I especially am slow
But I realized that I need you
And I wondered if I could come home
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,
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.
So if you wanna 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
Besides maybe this time it's different
I mean I really think you'll like me...

i love this song. it is absolutely amazing. i love the music video; its just so adorable. www.youtube.com/watch?v=zwFS69nA-1w&feature=related i heard the song once and immediately fell in love with it. anyone whos fallen head-over-heels with a guy [or girl] knows that this song captures it perfectly.
beautiful love song | Reviewer: kenna | 1/19/09
When most people think of love songs they think of wailing, over-emotional women. But I think this song is seriously one of the most beautiful, sincere, and heartfelt love songs of them all...it's talking about being woken up.
And I think that's one of the purest romantic sentiments there is...that life starts here, with them.
i love this song | Reviewer: Anonymous | 12/15/08
I can't think of any other song that makes me want to kiss someone like this one. It is just so romantic, and i think the guy who sings this song is so sensitive. I loved a guy with all my soul and everytime i think of him, this songs appears to be the music for my daydream. Ah, i'm so glad this song exists.
Modern Day Bob Dylan | Reviewer: Bri Sgro | 4/3/08
I agree with whoever said that. Conor Oberst is ridiculously talented. His music can be beautiful and fun and full of angst and still it gets to you. This song is so sweet and plain yet still romantic. Out of all of the Bright Eyes' songs this is definitely one of my favorites (aside from "Haigh, Haligh, A Lie, Haligh").
amazing | Reviewer: brianna | 1/25/08
conor oberst has the most incredible way of putting feelings that aren't easy to explain into music and lyrics. this song is definitely a good example of it. when he sings it, (this goes for all other bright eyes songs as well) you can hear and feel the emotions he's feeling through his voice. it gives me the chills sometimes!

Bright eyes is one of my favorite bands, this is the first song I have ever heard by them! It made me cry, and whenever I feel all " lovey dovey " I listen to this song. Conor Oberst is a modern day Bob Dylan.
gives me the happies :D | Reviewer: Ash | 12/16/07
this is the first bright eyes song ive ever hear. i think im seriously in love. my friend has this thing that he call the "happies". haha its when the one you love hold you close.. or touches your hand... and honestly, this song gives me the happies :D. i know it sounds stupid, but something about this song makes me want to cry and sing and smile and laugh all at the same time. i guess its because i know that its like 2 be in love. right when you realize it, its like you're waking up, and living for the first time. this song is amazing. its beautiful, deep, and loving <3... i love it...
infatuation | Reviewer: Miley Payton | 12/3/07
A guy that I adore very much plays this song on an acoustic guitar and I always get butterflies. This is by far my favorite song ever, and it will forever remind me of my infatuation for him. =]]
Great song. | Reviewer: Anonymous person lulz | 11/12/07
I've been listening to Bright Eyes and other folk/indie artists for a while now, and even though I'm just twelve, I feel like I subconsciously know this feeling that Oberst is describing. Just as "Travis" said, I feel like this will come for me one day, and right then, I'll fully known the intended meaning of all the lyrics in this song.
I know it.
n/a | Reviewer: izzy | 11/7/07
all of bright eyes' songs i have heard are amazing but i think this will always be my favourite. i don't really have a favourite song or artist, i like everything, but this song really is something special. It's like it makes me understand everything. My brain can't actually process but somewhere inside it feels like I understand. I am very young and still have time to work out what it means.
