[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

[Chorus]
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

[Chorus]
First time I ever felt this way
You were my first anything

[Bridge]
Love never seemed to make it
Love never wins the war
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 down Seventh Ave
First time I ever asked forgiveness
First time I let somebody down
First time I'd ever want to stay
Or climbed a mountain just to say I have
[Chorus]
The first time I ever felt this way
You were my first anything

[Bridge]
Love never seemed to make it
Love never wins the war
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

[Verse 4]
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

[Outro]
First time I ever felt this way
First time I ever felt this way
First time I ever felt this way
