How well I remember my very first love affairnThose juvenile fantasies and innocent dreams we sharednBut we're too blind to realize that we are totally unpreparednFor the first time we fall in lovenWe think it's forever, the first time we fall in lovenWe always treasure the first time we fall in lovenThose other romances come and go,nBut we cherish the memory ofnThe first time we fall in lovennFirst love can be such a strainnIt can rule your head, it can bring you pain,nAnd when it ends it seems such a shamenThe first time we fall in love,nCan make you sad, it can keep you awake,nIt can drive you madnPeople say you're too young and it's only a fadnThe first time we fall in lovenThe first time we fall in lovennThe first time I fell out of love, it knocked me through the floornMy world came crashing down, it shook me to the corenI was unprepared 'cos I was only a kidnAnd I was much too young and I wasn't equippednFor the emotional pressures and stresses of itnBut oh, I'll never forgetnThe way that she looked the first time we metnTime goes by but we never forgetnThe first time we fall in lovennLove can be exciting, it can be a bloody borenLove can be a pleasure or nothing but a chorenLove can be like a dull routine,nIt can run you around until you're out of steamnIt can treat you well, it can treat you mean,nLove can mess you around,nLove can pick you up, it can bring you downnBut they'll never knownThe feelings we shownThe first time we fall in lovenThe first time we fall in love
