First Light

Could it be
The start is coming
You feel the spark of something
And I don't know whose arms you're in
But still I wait for this to begin

Sometimes we don't understand
Gifts when they are in our hands
But if I could
Then I would say
But you stay when the whole house shakes
You slam the doors I slam the brakes
And I can't tell whose hands you've held
But I will wait to know them right so

Sometimes we don't understand
Gifts when they are in our hands
But if I could
Then I would say
Don't hold on to the cold that bites your hands
And I can tell you've got things to say
Just start at once before the signals change

Sometimes we don't understand
Gifts when they are in our hands
But if I could
Then I would say
Don't hold on to the cold that bites your hands
You're standing in the first light
