[Verse 1]
You were my first anything, first walk down a dead-end street
First time I ever saw the ocean, let the water nearly freeze my feet
You were my first favorite day, first dream that didn't let me sleep
First time I ever felt this way, you were my first anything

[Verse 2]
You were my first anything, first fall from a pecan tree
First time I ever felt the midnight, only time I ever felt relief
You were my first sky turned gray, first rain on a summer street
First time I ever felt this way, you were my first anything

[Chorus]
Love never seems to make it, love never wins the war
But this time, this time, this time might be different
This time, this time, this time might be different
For sure

[Verse 3]
You were my first anything, first night on 7th Ave
First time I ever asked forgiveness, first time I let somebody down
First time I'd ever wanna stay, climbed a mountain just to say I have
First time I ever felt this way, you were my first anything

[Chorus]
Love never seems to make it, love never wins the war
But this time, this time, this time might be different
This time, this time, this time might be different
This time, this time, this time might be different
For sure

[Outro]
You were my first anything, first walk down a dead-end street
First time I ever felt the midnight, only time I ever felt relief
You were my first sky turned gray, first rain on a summer street
First time I ever felt this way
First time I ever felt this way
First time I ever felt this way
