A funny story on the radio
You were the first thing on my mind
I saw the sunset, red and indigo
The day and night were there entwined

But in the moments glad and glorious
The things so good you have to share
You are the first place that my heart turns to
It’s not the same when you’re not there

And when the day’s been dark’ning readily
And morning hopes grow hard to find
I find where you are love burns steadily
You’re still the first thing on my mind

The days where bad news comes like hand grenades
When there’s no place to run or hide
When life throws all it has at you or me
I want to be there by your side

And now the years go by in miracles
We don’t know what all we will find
But in whatever’s there in front of me
You’ll be the first thing on my mind

Whenever glory’s there in front of me
You’ll be the first thing on my mind
