First Song

Strong cup of coffee

I sit in your chair

The smell of sweet flowers

Fill the air

For my brother’s superhero

My mother’s first love

You were gonna walk me down the aisle

When I found the one

And everything I’ve done

I did to make you proud

And just because you’re gone

You wouldn’t want me to stop now

So here’s the first song that you’ll never hear

The first of mine that will not reach your ears

Always knew that I’d write one for you

But never thought I’d ever face my fear

Of the first song you’ll never hear

Round the living room

I’d put on a show

And I remember you

Sitting in front row

To watch your baby girl

And hang on every note

Ten years later, I still played you

Every song I wrote

And here’s the first song that you’ll never hear

The first of mine that will not reach your ears

Always knew that I’d write one for you

But never thought I’d ever face my fear

Of the first song you’ll never

I won’t hear your voice

Singing along with me

But I can feel you now

In the melody

Of the first song that you’ll never hear

The first of mine that cannot reach your ears

Always knew that I’d write one for you

But never thought I’d ever face my fear

Of the first song you’ll never hear

Strong cup of coffee

I sit in your chair

The smell of sweet flowers

Fill the air
