Gone are the days that we'd dance in the kitchen
Make prayers in our own fake religion
But both our hearts have drifted farther away
When I woke up you're still here with me
But we both know the stories end and the pages are full
And there's no words left to say

Started to think for the first time
It feels like there's nothing to lose
It's harder to stay when we both lie
On a fault line, we're falling through
Oh, ooh
You'll always be mine, but not quite
Like the first time
Oh, like the first time

Deep in your eyes there's a fear of what's coming
But darling, there's no use in running
We tried it all and we're better off alone
And I won't lie, I'm scared to be lonely
Just for a moment, I want you to hold me
Then I'll remember all the ways we went wrong

Started to think for the first time
It feels like there's nothing to lose
It's harder to stay when we both lie
On a fault line, we're falling through
Oh, ooh
You'll always be mine, but not quite
Like the first time
Oh, like the first time

The memories start to fade
And pictures start to grey
I still remember the first time
The first time, yeah
When life begins to break
And time, it slips away
I still remember the first time
The first time
