The First Time

I thought my heart had felt it all

I swam for miles across the ocean, never met the shore

My eyes were closed, my highs were lows

Just getting drunk on pills and potions, craving something more

Traveled the world, but it got me nowhere

Nothing could ever compare

A kiss, a touch, a song that made me cry

And all the drugs I've done, they never got me higher

Than the first time we met

There's nothing like the first time we met

I crashed my car, oh baby, I was flying

And I talk to God, He couldn't get me higher

Than the first time we met

There's nothing like the first time, the first time we met

That night, the stars aligned

Heaven dropped a line

Before you, I was just a flare in the sky

A kid too afraid to go play in the light

A colorless painter, a man with no sight

Before you, I was nothing, was nothing, had nothing

I only had a kiss, a touch, a song that made me cry

And all the drugs I've done, they never got me higher

Than the first time we met

There's nothing like the first time we met

I crashed my car, oh baby, I was flying

And I talk to God, He couldn't get me higher

Than the first time we met

There's nothing like the first time, the first time we met

the first time we met, the first time we met

There's nothing like the first time, the first time we met
