For The First Time

For The First Time

(Album: Riddle Of The Sphinx - 1975)

Proposed the Sphinx
"What creature walks on four legs in the morning
Two at noon
And three in the evening?"

Oedipus solved the riddle with this answer
"Man walked on his hands and feet when young
At noon, in middle life, he walked erect on two
And in the afternoon of life, he walked with the aid of a walking stick"

(For the first time)
(For the first time)

When I wake up in the morning for the first time
There's nothing on my mind
As the days go by, I begin to realize
Something is happening to me
I don't know who you are
But you've been real good to me
You keep me warm, you protect me from all harm

When I wake up in the morning over and over again (Over and over again)
Things have begun to stick to my mind
As the days have gone by, I begin to realize
All the good things that have happened to me
I'm gonna call you mother
Oh, as a father, you've been real good to me
You kept me warm, you protected me from all harm

Mother and father, you'll be
For the first time

For the first time
I see the world as it is
And it's so beautiful
Mother and father, please tell me

Why am I afraid?
What is there to fear?
The world is but young and new to me
