Lyrics

Şarkı sözleri

I'm a bother to my mother
And my father thinks I'm mad
I've a brother and two sisters
If I'd smother they'd be glad
Every morning I awake
With sunlight in my hair
Then I stretch my arms to take
A handful of the air
Mother, father, sister, brother
There's no other in my heart
All my lifetime lies before me
Please God, let it start
Here I stand with life ahead of me
No place to hide
Today is the first day of the rest of my life
Though it's true what some have said of me
That I'm untried
Today is the first day of the rest of my life
Hushed and scared and flushed and wary
I watch for dawn
All my waiting years suddenly are gone
Wait, don't move, I'm still not ready yet
I need more time to steady my heart
But it's too late
For now it starts
Beat by beat my pulse is quickening
And growing strong
Today is the first day of the rest of my life
One might say my plot's been thickening
For far too long
Today is the first day of the rest of my life
There, right there, the future's gleaming
It blinds my eyes
Soon my world will grow wider than the skies
Wait, don't move, I'm still not grown enough
And yet it's time to own my own heart
I'm not prepared
But let it start!
Old rickety freight train is telling me straight
There's a new life comin'
Each click of the gears puts a song in my ears
There's a new life comin'
I couldn't ignore if I tried
Hearin' those voices outside
Sayin', "Boy, enjoy your joyride"
My troubles at last disappear in the past
There's a new life comin'
Whatever you name, not a thing is the same
There's a new life comin'
What manner of fling will it be?
Who know, who cares?
Just bring my world to me!
Old rickety freight train is telling me straight
There's a new life comin'
Old clickety rails are a-whisperin' tales
Of a new life comin'
I couldn't ignore if I tried (I couldn't ignore if I tried)
Hearin' those voices outside (Hearin' those voices out—)
Sayin', "Boy, enjoy your
"Joyride, joyride" (Joyride, joy)
It's a joyride, it's a joyride
It's a joy to sing
This ugly young duckling is changin' his luck (Speed)
There's a new life comin' (Me to it, and then)
Whatever my fortune I'll carry the torch of a (Sing)
New life comin' (Me to it)
What manner of fling will it be?
Who know, who cares?
Just bring my world to me!
Yeah!
