The First Time

[Verse 1]
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

[Pre-Chorus]
Traveled the world, but it got me nowhere
Nothing could ever compare

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 2]
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 to play in the light
A colorless painter, a man with no sight
Before you, I was nothing, was nothing, had nothing

[Chorus]
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

[Bridge]
You set the room on fire
You take the angels higher
I heard a thousand choirs
Oh baby, you ain't seen nothing yet
Traveled the world, it got me nowhere
Nothing could ever compare

[Chorus]
A kiss, a touch, a song that made me cry
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
