The First Time

First time that we talked

Felt my guard just fall away

Every word you threw across

Landed in the space I’d saved

Then I saw your eyes

And the room just slipped out of frame

Didn’t need a second try

To know I’d never be the same

The first time I saw those eyes

Tanya

My heart said

“this is where you belong”

The first time our lips caught fire

Tanya

I heard forever in a four‑beat song

Every breath I take

Spells out your name

I knew from the start

And I’m here to stay

We were laughing in the dark

Over stories we’d never told

You were tracing on my hand

Little circles made of gold

Every shy

Unsure touch

Felt like truth I couldn’t fake

Every piece of me stood up

And chose you for its place

The first time I saw those eyes

Tanya

My heart said

“this is where you belong”

The first time our lips caught fire

Tanya

I heard forever in a four‑beat song

Every breath I take

Spells out your name

I knew from the start

And I’m here to stay

If the nights get loud

If the days feel long

You can lean on my shoulder

’til the weight is gone

I won’t run

Won’t fade

Won’t slip away

I chose you once

I choose you every day (yeah)

The first time I saw those eyes

Tanya

My heart said

“this is where you belong”

The first time our lips caught fire

Tanya

I heard forever in a four‑beat song

Every breath I take

Spells out your name

I knew from the start

And I’m here to stay

Yeah

I knew from the start

And I’m here to stay
