First Day Lyrics by Rachel Platten

I Am Rachel Platten

2024

[Verse 1]
I don't love you when you're makin' bags of cash
Any more than when you try and finish last
But I love you for the way you make me laugh
How you hold me when I'm sad
You think you've failed me, but I've failed more times than that
[Pre-Chorus]
And you were there for me
So I'll be there for you
'Cause you were there for me
[Chorus]
I still see you how I saw you on the first day that we met
There's a light that's in your eyes, and I know it ain't gone out yet
So don't you worry, baby—I'm still your baby
I still see you how I saw you on the first day that we met
[Post-Chorus]
Oh, yeah
Oh, yeah
And oh, yeah
Oh, yeah
[Verse 2]
I don't love you when you've gotten all your dreams
Any more than when you're cryin' on your knees
But god, I love you, 'cause you make me feel so safe
I wish you weren't so ashamed
You think you messed up, but babe, I've made worse mistakes
[Pre-Chorus]
And you were there for me
So I'll be there for you
'Cause you were there for me
[Chorus]
I still see you how I saw you on the first day that we met
There's a light that's in your eyes, and I know it ain't gone out yet
So don't you worry, baby—I'm still your baby
I still see you how I saw you on the first day that we met
[Post-Chorus]
Oh, yeah
Oh, yeah
And oh, yeah
Oh, yeah
(First day that I saw you)
(Always gon' love you)
[Chorus]
I still see you how I saw you on the first day that we met
There's a light that's in your eyes, and I know it ain't gone out yet
So don't you worry, baby—I'm still your baby
I still see you how I saw you on the first day that we met
[Post-Chorus]
Oh, yeah
Oh, yeah
And oh, yeah
Oh, yeah
I still see you how I saw you on the first day that we met
