1. “First Time” – a song about first love. Everybody remembers the first time they fell in love. It’s extraordinary how most people can still recall their first experience of love…like it is branded into their soul. Proust might have his memory jogged by the olfactory madeleine cake and the sound of a teaspoon clinking on a cup…but most of us just need to close our eyes and remember to be “transported back in time”. If nothing else, simply testimony to the power of love.

Lyrics

First Time

Love at first sight
Unrequited love, there longing
Nothing quite hurts
Like the flame of first love burning

Nothing’s ever as good
Nor as vibrant or as meaningful as
First love in first bloom
Full of colour, scent and wonder

If I close my eyes
I am transported back to another place and time
Though I love my life
Sometimes
It makes me smile
To remember the first time

No one forgets
Their first ever true love
Never
I may have some regrets
But I vividly remember

Nothing ever compares
To the thrill of first love making
I still
Recall the time and place
Where I first felt love awaken

If I close my eyes
I am transported back to another place and time
Though I love my life
Sometimes
It makes me smile
To remember the first time

It’s all in the past
Fist love never lasts
Breaking your heart is a rite of passage
It’s all in the past
First love never lasts
Breaking your heart is just a part of it

If I close my eyes
I am transported back to another place and time
Though I love my life
Sometimes
It makes me smile
To remember the first time
Everybody
Remembers their first time
Everybody
Remembers their first time in love
