[Verse 1]
Saw you by the door
Blue jeans, chipped nails
You laughed with your friends
I forgot what I was saying
Your eyes hit mine
Like a match to dry grass
One look, one smile
And I knew I’d crash
[Pre-Chorus]
I tried to play it cool
But my hands gave me away
You said my name
And the whole room changed
I felt that pull
Right through my chest
Like I’d been waiting
For you to walk in next
[Chorus]
It was the first time
First time, I fell
First time your name
Turned my heart to gel
It was the first time
And I could tell
Baby, that night
I lost myself
[Verse 2]
I watched you reach for the drink
Little gold ring on your hand
You asked me where I’m from
I said, “Wherever you stand”
We talked about nothing
And it felt like home
I swear your voice
Put my guard on the floor
I was supposed to leave
Had places to be
Then you leaned in close
And rewrote me
[Pre-Chorus]
I tried to play it cool
But my hands gave me away
You said my name
And the whole room changed
I felt that pull
Right through my chest
Like I’d been waiting
For you to walk in next
[Chorus]
It was the first time
First time, I fell
First time your name
Turned my heart to gel
It was the first time
And I could tell
Baby, that night
I lost myself
[Bridge]
Now every kiss
Brings me back there
That borrowed room
That electric air
You looked at me
Like you already knew
One night changed me
Now I’m stuck on you
[Chorus]
It was the first time
First time, I fell
First time your name
Turned my heart to gel
It was the first time
And I could tell
Baby, that night
I lost myself
