Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I thought my heart had felt it all
I swam for miles across the ocean
Never met the shore
My eyes were closed
My highs were lows
Just getting drunk on pills and potions
Craving something more
[PreChorus]
Traveled the world, but it got me nowhere
Nothing could ever compare
[Chorus]
A kiss, a touch
A song that made me cry
And all the drugs I've done
They never got me higher
Than the first time we met
There's nothing like the first time we met
I crashed my car
Oh baby I was flying
And I talked to God
He couldn't get me higher
Than the first time we met
There's nothing like the first time
The first time we met
[Verse 2]
That night, the stars aligned
Heaven dropped a line
Before you, I was just a flare in the sky
A kid too afraid to go to play in the light
A colorless painter
A man with no sight
Before you, I was nothing
Was nothing
Had nothing
I only had
[Chorus]
A kiss, a touch
A song that made me cry
And all the drugs I've done
They never got me higher
Than the first time we met
There's nothing like the first time we met
I crashed my car
Oh baby I was flying
And I talked to God
He couldn't get me higher
Than the first time we met
There's nothing like the first time
The first time we met
[Bridge]
You set the room on fire
You take the angels higher
I heard a thousand choirs
Oh baby you ain't seen nothing yet
[PreChorus]
Traveled the world, it got me nowhere
Nothing could ever compare
[Chorus]
A kiss, a touch
A song that made me cry
Drugs I've done
They never got me higher
Than the first time we met
There's nothing like the first time we met
And when I crashed my car
Oh baby I was flying
And I talked to God
He couldn't get me higher
Than the first time we met
There's nothing like the first time
The first time we met
[Outro]
The first time we met
The first time we met
There's nothing like the first time
The first time we met
