First Light Lyrics

First light tonight,
First light tomorrow,
First light this morning,
First light this evening,
First light tonight.

Been looking back,
Down through the ages;
First I was an ancient,
Then I was an infant,
Now I am alive.

Been holdin' out,
Searchin' for something,
Something to carry
Me over the sunset,
To dawn's early lights.

First light tonight,
First light tomorrow,
First light this evening,
First light this morning,
First light tonight.

Then I found it
I did it, finally oh
My search it was over
I prayed till was gone
My all in light
I been there...

Still holdin' on

First light tonight,
First light tomorrow,
First light this morning,
First light this evening,
First light tonight.

First light tonight,
First light tomorrow,
First light this evening,
First light this morning,
First light tonight.

Cover art for First Light lyrics by My Morning Jacket

great song, pretty vague but about finding your "own inner light" which is why i wanted to post...

that final verse sounds like this to me [my corrections set off in brackets]:

Then I found it [Or did it find me, oh?] My search it was over My ____ [filled with gold] My [own inner light] I been there

what is filled with gold? missing that. i think he's saying "purse" but the rest of those corrections are def the lyrics, not what is originally posted
