The First Thing I see
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I saw two stars on a cold autumn night
You said that they were the headlights of an alien car
Coming to tell us that we’ll be alright
Remember you told me that love isn’t blind
It’s more like you’re watching the world
Through a new set of eyes
Finding the colors that usually hide
Oh I don’t know where I’m going
I don’t know where I’ll be
But it doesn’t matter
'Cause every morning
When I wake you’re the first thing I see
Sometimes it’s hard to be still in your skin
The questions and outcomes can shake you
And spin you and then
You’re back on the floor and you’re back in your head
But if I’m the ocean then you are the tide
Taking my heart in your hands
As we move through this life
Greeting the Moon hung in the sky
Oh I don’t know where I’m going
I don’t know where I’ll be
But it doesn’t matter
'Cause every morning
When I wake you’re the first thing I see
