For the First Time in My Life

from Getting Nowhere Fast EP by John Beagley

/

lyrics

In light and perfect distance we circle round the sun
Across time and our near space to her we owe our life
For the first time till the last she’s shining
As we go about our lives complaining
I see you - I feel it
Beautiful consequences?

My mind its overtaken by how we are to be
In this complete perfection - the earth beneath our feet
For the first time in my life Im humbled
Its taken far too long to waken
These chances - were not chances
This place is designed for us

I look up to the heavens - I’m insignificant
This life’s absorbed and shaken- by the universe of love
For the first time in my life - I get this
And i feel I owe the world and much more
I stand here in abundance
Of everything I have

Receiving the love
Under the sun
Im Breathing the air
Amazed to be here

For the first time in my life I’ve woken
To the fact that I am here at all
For the first time in my life I’m open
to the universe that lives in us
