The First Time I Saw Her

[Verse 1]
She walked in late
Laughing at something I couldn’t hear
Faded blue jacket
Ink on her hand and coffee on her sleeve
My friends kept talking
But every word just drifted off the screen
Like I’d been half-awake
And someone shook me from a half-lived dream
[Chorus]
The first time I saw her
The room fell out of focus
My heart tripped over
Every tiny moment
Didn’t know her name
But I knew I’d remember
The first time I saw her
I started hoping for forever (oh)
[Verse 2]
She brushed her hair
Tucked it behind her ear and checked her phone
Light caught her face
Turned that crowded place to just us two alone
I said something dumb
She smiled like she already understood
One simple “hi”
Turned into “how did life feel good?”
[Chorus]
The first time I saw her
The room fell out of focus
My heart tripped over
Every tiny moment
Didn’t know her name
But I knew I’d remember
The first time I saw her
I started hoping for forever
[Bridge]
Now every little day
Keeps circling back to that night
If I had walked away
We’d be strangers passing by
But she caught my eye
And everything changed
[Chorus]
The first time I saw her
The room fell out of focus
My heart tripped over
Every tiny moment
Didn’t know her name
But I knew I’d remember
The first time I saw her
I started hoping for forever
Yeah
The first time I saw her
Was the start of my forever (hey!)

pop, Shimmering mid-tempo pop, male vocals; clean palm-muted guitars and soft keys in the verses, then a bright, wide chorus with stacked harmonies. Tight, punchy drums and warm bass drive the groove; subtle synth swells bloom on the hook. Final chorus lifts with extra ad-libs and a gentle guitar riff echoing the topline.
