Come over to my house
Jumped in my neighbour's pool
It felt nice
It felt so nice
It was getting dark
You wrapped your
Long legs around me
I held on tight
Lying in my bed
The unfamiliar sheets
Were so cool
On your skin
When your daddy called
Say you were at a friend's
And we walked
The long way home
Going on my first impression
I recalled you wearing white
There was something sweet
In the air babe, that summer night
There will always be another time
For us to fall in love
But it never cuts you quite as deep
As that first time
You'll find out that the deepest cut
Is the first time
First times always cut the deepest
Bring me with your hands
Show a safe place
And I'll come down
And I'll come down
Can you recognise
The look upon my face
It's on my lips
It's in my eyes
This vow will never break
Won't you say it one more time
Won't you say my name
Won't you say my name
This vow will never break
Won't you say it one more time
Won't you say
Say my name
Going on my my first impression
I recalled you wearing white
There was something sweet
In the air babe, that summer night
There will always be another time
For us to fall in love
But it never cuts you quite as deep
As that first time
You'll find out that the deepest cut
Is the first time
First times always cut the deepest
