Today Is the First Day of the Rest of My Life (Sugacity) - John Denver

Today is the first day

Of the rest of my life

I wake as a child

To see the world begin

On monarch queens

And birthday wonderings

Want to put on faces

Walk in the wet and cold

And look forward to my growing old

To grow old is to change

To change is to be new

To be new is to be young again

I barely remember when

My memories are stolen by the moming

Blotted out by the suns hypnotic eye

Today is the first day

Of the rest of my life

I wake as a child

To see the world begin

On monarch queens

And birthday wondenngs

Want to put on faces
