This is the first day of the rest of my life
Could be the first day of the best of my life
There could be sunlight, there could be rain
But losing or winning, this is beginning all over again
This is the birthday of a brand new start
Change of direction, change of heart
When I think of today I feel tempted to say
Destiny, do your worst
Of the rest of the days of the rest of my life
It's only the first

Each little day is a world of its own
Each little day is a tomb
Whenever the day has drifted away
It's back to the womb
As I lie alone in the darkness
Waiting the next rebirth
I say for me what could very well be
For everyone else on earth

Could be the first day of the best of my life
There could be sunlight, there could be rain
But losing or winning, this is beginning all over again
This is the birthday of a brand new start
Change of direction, change of heart
When I think of today I feel tempted to say
Destiny, do your worst
Of the rest of the days of the rest of my life
This is only the first.
