The First Day - Molly Drake

This is the first day of the rest of my life

Could be the first day of the best of my life

There could be sunlight, there could be rain

But losing or winning, this is beginning all over again

This is the birthday of a brand new start

Change of direction, change of heart

When I think of today I feel tempted to say

Destiny, do your worst

Of the rest of the days of the rest of my life

It’s only the first

Each little day is a world of its own

Each little day is a tomb

Whenever the day has drifted away

It’s back to the womb

As I lie alone in the darkness

Waiting the next rebirth

I say for me what could very well be

For everyone else on earth

Could be the first day of the best of my life

There could be sunlight, there could be rain

But losing or winning, this is beginning all over again

This is the birthday of a brand new start

Change of direction, change of heart

When I think of today I feel tempted to say

Destiny, do your worst

Of the rest of the days of the rest of my life

This is only the first
