“First Time” was released in August of 2014 as Vance Joy’s fourth single off his debut album, Dream Your Life Away. The song charted in both his country of Australia as well as Belgium.
The song begins by describing the narrator’s first sexual encounter and the overwhelming feelings that come with...
[Verse 1]
Come over to my house, jump in the neighbour's pool
It felt nice, felt so nice
And it was getting dark, you wrapped your long legs
Around me, I held on tight
Lying in my bed, the unfamiliar sheets
Were so cool on your skin
When your daddy called, said you were at a friend's
And we walked the long way home
[Chorus]
Going on my first impression, I recall you wearing white
There was something sweet in the air, babe, that summer night
There will always be another time for us to fall in love
But it never cuts you quite as deep as that first time
You'll find out that the deepest cut is the first time
First times always cut the deepest
[Verse 2]
Breathe me with your hands, show me a safe place
And I'll come down, yeah, I'll come down
And can you recognise the look upon my face?
It's on my lips, it's in my eyes
This bar will never break, won't you say it one more time?
Won't you say my name? Won't you say my name?
This bar will never break, won't you say it one more time?
Won't you say, say my name?
[Chorus]
Going on my first impression, I recall you wearing white
There was something sweet in the air, babe, that summer night
There will always be another time for us to fall in love
But it never cuts you quite as deep as that first time
You'll find out that the deepest cut is the first time
First times always cut the deepest
[Bridge]
Ooh-oh, da-da-da, da-da, da-da-da
Da-da-da, da-da, da-da-da
Da-da-da, da-da-da
Da-da-da-da, ooh-oh
Da, da-da, da-da, da-da-da
Da-da-da, da-da, da-da-da
Da, da-da-da
(Ooh, ooh)
[Chorus]
Going on my first impression, I recall you wearing white
There was something sweet in the air, babe, that summer night
There will always be another time for us to fall in love
But it never cuts you quite as deep as that first time
You'll find out that the deepest cut is the first time
[Outro]
First times always cut the deepest, the first time
You'll find out that the deepest cut is the first time
First times always cut the deepest, the first time
You'll find out that the deepest cut is the first time
First times always cut the deepest

It was a song I started writing in 2012 and I didn’t think much of it and put it away and I was reading A Moveable Feast, a Hemingway novel, and he refers to a friend hearing a story for the first time and hearing it having an impact on him, totally getting into the s...
