THE FIRST TIME

I’ve been fighting the power of feelings
Coursing through this wary body’s veins
I have every right to be this leery
It won’t survive the loss of you again

I had barely built up my resistance
Repaired what you left on the decline
No time for walls, before I got your call
And you drug my heart back
To the first time...

~~~*Chorus*~~~
The first time was Magical
Living just to be with you
Recalling those memories
That I’ve been dancing through
Reviving love, in my mind
So beautiful, I’ve got to try
Imagine…
 It will be just fine
Pretend…
That it’s the first time
~~*~~

I’m trying not to turn, and run away
Waiting for my dream to reappear
Unaware of my surroundings
Nervous heart pounding
Trying to hold back the tears

~~~*Lyrical Bridge*~~~
I know that there are trees that bend
That petals fall with the changing winds
But I don’t want to be scared
Searching for the signs
I want the first time…
~~*~~

~~~*Chorus*~~~
The first time was Magical
Living just to be with you
Recalling those memories
That I’ve been dancing through
Reviving love, in my mind
So beautiful, I’ve got to try
Imagine…
 It will be just fine
Pretend…
That it’s the first time
~~*~~
Oh, Life’s so fine….
Better than the first time
~~*~~
