First Thing
Words & Music by Dennis Warner / From the Dennis Warner CD “Seeds”

 

First Thing in the morning I think about you

Last thing in the night I think about you

And every hour in between

Plays out like a movie scene

Starring you

I’ve been thinking ‘bout you

 

Well I’ve got it bad they tell me, yeh I’ve got it good I know

Got nothin’ left to try and sell ya, you already own my soul

The sweet scent of tenderness gets to me every time

Surrounded by loneliness

You picked me off the vine

 

*CHORUS*

 

Still I gotta know one thing right now, hear the truth from your lips

Is there tomorrow in your eyes or just now on those fingertips

‘Cause I’ve crashed and burned once or twice before

Each time you know I swear I’ve learned

Gotta keep a lock on that door

 

          First Thing in the morning, I think about you

          (Instrumental remaining chorus)

 

BRIDGE:             Not talkin’ ‘bout takin’ some vow

                             No rings to exchange

                             Just knowin’ you won’t be runnin’ away

                             The first sign, the first sign of rain

                             Oh I been thinkin’ about you

 

Last thing in the night I think about you

And every hour in between

Plays out like a movie scene

Starring you

I’ve been thinking ‘bout you

Thinkin’ ‘bout you

 

First Thing in the morning, last thing in the night...
