The First Night of the Rest of Our Lives

A social night, another crowd, and there’s anxiety and stress here
I feel alone, it’s much too loud, I need to get a breath of fresh air

But when you step through the door
I’m drawn to where you are
Where have you been all my life?

You’re not a dream, so very real, you open up and let me see you
No need to hide, I can’t conceal, I know I’ll always want to be with you

We talk together ‘till dawn
Laughing and carrying on
Where have you been all my life?

The first night of the rest of our lives, together
The first night of the rest of our lives

You touch my soul, give me your hand, I want to please you like you please me
Your man, your friend, for you I stand, nobody sees me like you see me

We stay together ‘till dawn
Loving and carrying on
Where have you been all my life?

The first night of the rest of our lives, together
The first night of the rest of our lives

You’re not a dream, so very real, you open up and let me see you
No need to hide, I can’t conceal, I know I’ll always want to be with you

We lay together ‘till dawn
Loving and carrying on
Where have you been all my life?

The first night of the rest of our lives
You’re not a dream
The first night of the rest of our lives
We lay together ‘till dawn
