THE FIRST TIME
(verse)
Passion is the hardest thing to fight
There's so much magic in a cloudless summer sky
Out there through the windshield are the distant city lights
I knew what you wanted when you looked in my eyes
(perchorus)
But it's not about the moonlight
And it's not about the view
It's more than just how much I'm wanting you
(chorus)
The first time
Has to be just right
And it might be with you
But it won't be tonight
I love you, but I 've gotta say that I'm
Waiting on the first time.
(verse)
I knew I'd have to face this choice someday
Knowing if I gave in, life would never be the same
But your kisses made me second-guess what I would say
I'm just so glad I found the strength when the moment came.
(prechorus)
'Cause it's not about your ego
And it's not about the rush
It's something that defines the two of us
(repeat chorus)
(chorus 2)
The first time
Has to be just right
He'll be in a tux
And I'll feel proud in white
I love you, but I've gotta say that I'm
Waiting on the first time
