First Time (Once again)

Well, when his eyes look upon her
his mouth tells her “I adore”.
His heart beating in his chest
as it has never beat before.
It’s a little like the last time
but with that little bit more.
In love for the first time (once again).

Well, when his lips met with hers,
came together for first kiss.
He heard birds begin to sing:
“You’ve never felt as good as this!”
Mix one part Disney delusion,
add another huge dose of bliss.
In love for the first time (once again).

Well, with her arms wrapped around him
and his holding her right back.
Every song seems to be played
for their romance’s backing track.
So splash round brightest colours,
time to tear down all the black.
In love for the first time (once again).

Well, when she steals his heart,
it’s the most perfect crime.
He thinks: “This must be real,
it’s just got to work this time!”
His pen pricks the paper,
writes another romantic rhyme.
In love for the first time (once again).
