I've Never Been This Far Before
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I can almost hear the stillness
As it yelds to the sound of my heart beating
And I can almost hear the echo
Of the thoughts that I know you must be thinking
You can feel my body tremble
As I wonder what this moment holds in store
And as you put my arms around me
You can tell I've never been this far before
I can hear you say you love me
As your trembling fingers touch forbidden places (pum pum pum)
But you don't know how I've waited
So long for the chance that we're finally takin' (pum pum pum)
I don't know and I don't care
What made you tell her you don't love her anymore
As I taste your tender kisses
You can tell I've never been this far before (pum pum pum)
And as you take the love I'm givin'
I can feel the tension buildin' in my mind (pum pum pum pum pum pum)
Now I wonder if tomorrow
Will you still love me like you're lovin' me tonight (pum pum pum pum pum pum)
Oh you have no way of knowin'
But tonight will only make me want you more
And I hope that you'll believe me
Cause you know I've never been this far before (pum pum pum pum pum pum)
(Pum pum pum)
