Feels like I'm getting older
I'm not afraid,
All though I'm worlds apart from yesterday
And yet I can't believe I'm old enough today
To be in love, and feel in love and see if love is the way.

I don't need fancy places to spend the time,
I'm happy just to be here with you tonight
And yet I'm not so sure the time is really right
To be in love, and feel in love and see if love is all right.

And you will sing as long as there's a song
The feelings never gone
It was the first time to be in love
Maybe tomorrow I'll never sing again
But I'll remember when it was the first time to be in love.

The picture is slowly fading and now it's gone,
The letters we remember are old and torn
And although the time has passed
The memory lingers on
To be in love, and feel in love
And know when love is gone.

And you will sing as long as there's a song
The feelings never gone
It was the first time to be in love
Maybe tomorrow I'll never sing again
But I'll remember when it was the first time to be in love.
