Empty nights - endless days
Sometimes love turns out that way
Yes I know - it went too fast
But you can't keep livin' your life in the past

Today's the first day of the rest of your life
It's up to you to make the best of your life
Open your eyes it's another day

She was there - she was gone
You don't know how you'll get along
I've been there - and I recall
Better that than never to have loved at all

Today's the first day of the rest of your life
You've got to go and make the best of your life
For every night there's another day

Yes you say you've been in love before
You've been around and you know the score
But when the tears fill your eyes
Then sometimes they can blind you

So my friend - you must know
Love will come - and love may go
But when it does don't despair
Every space has someone just meant to be there

Today's the first day of the rest of your life
I know you're gonna make the best of your life
Today's the first day of the rest of your life
Lift up your eyes, it's the rest of your life
