First Time in Years Songtext
von Erik Koskinen

I′m going to the river
To see the water flow
It's coming down off the mountain
To the ocean it will go
I′m going to the country
To see that girl of mine
She's coming down off the mountain
The mountain way up high
And I'm feeling pretty good
Despite all the tears
Yeah, I′m feeling pretty good
For the first time in years
I′m going into town
To get myself a drink
I'm coming down off the mountain
To have myself a think
I′ve been working all winter
I've been working on the fence
And the borders I′m creating
Never making any sense


Yeah, but I'm feeling pretty good
Despite all my fears
Yeah, I′m feeling pretty good
For the first time in years
I'm sitting in the kitchen
With the radio low
I'm high up on the mountain
Looking down below
Yeah, I′m looking out my window
At all the passers by
And it′s five below zero
Right here in my mind
Yeah, but I'm feeling pretty good
Despite all the tears
Yeah, I′m feeling pretty good
For the first time in years
Yeah, but I'm feeling pretty good
Despite all my fears
Yeah, I′m feeling pretty good
For the first time in years
