First Day of My Life - Joseph Allen White

I woke up with tears in my eyes and pain

Burning inside for the last time

Things were gonna change

She walked out and I blocked out the sun

And my heartache had only begun

But for my life

This was not the end

Because a broken heart

Can be the perfect place to start

I'll think of today as the first day of my life

And when I find new love

I won't let the deep fear make me run

Because today is the first day of my life

All of the pictures hung up on my walls

We're reminders of my greatest fall

I took them down and painted it all

Then I picked up picked up this old six-string

And I wrote some wrote some songs to sing

For a new life was about to begin

Because a broken heart

Can be the perfect place to start

I'll think of today as the first day of my life

And when I find new love

I won't let the deep fear make me run

Because today is the first day of my life

On a first date I'll show up at sunset

At the end of the night I'll lean in for a kiss

I won't hold back I'm gonna find out

That getting back up is what lifes all about

Because a broken heart

Can be the perfect place to start

I'll think of today as the first day of my life

And when I find new love

I won't let the deep fear make me run

Because today is the first day of my life

Today is the first day of my life

Today is the first day of my life
