First Time

Broke into the screened-in porch

Now I'm crawling through the dog door

I may let you see me on my knees

But you'll never see me on all fours

Drooling on the tile

I'm a starfish on the kitchen floor

Catch my breath to breathe your name

I'm just the fool you took me for

You can't feel it for the first time the second time

You can't feel it for the first time the second time

You gave me your hands 'cause you

Didn't know what to do with them and

I showed you the way

Even though I'd never been

Where did we go right?

I think about it all the time

If I had paid closer attention

Maybe I could take us back to there and then

You can't feel it for the first time the second time

You can't feel it for the first time the second time

I can't go back to who I was before I met you

I can't undo what I've done, I wouldn't want to

I wouldn't want to, I wouldn't want to

Sneaking out of the house

I must be out of my mind

I'm running out of excuses

We're running out of time

You say the love will come and go

We'll learn to ride the ebb and flow

You always leave before the light

Come back same time and place the next night

And how will I know if history repeats itself?

How will I know when it's gonna come back around?

How will I know? Has my face changed, baby?

How will I know? I'll stay ready for you to take me

Take me, take me

Take me
