(Garvey)
|
Today is the first day of the rest of my life, I wake as a child to see the world begin.
|
On monarch wings and birthday wonderings, want to put on faces, walk in the wet and cold.
|
And look forward to my growing old, to grow is to change, to change is to be new,
|
to be new is to be young again, I barely remember when.
|
|
My memories are stolen by the morning, blotted out by the suns hypnotic eye.
|
I'll abide the sun's hypnotic eye.
|
|
Today is the first day of the rest of my life, I wake as a child to see the world begin.
|
On monarch wings and birthday wonderings, want to put on faces, walk in the wet and cold.
|
And look forward to my growing old.
