Boys Like Girls - The First Time lyrics

rate me

Can you believe it? It’s been almost ten years now

And I’m getting that feeling, as we’re driving ‘round this town

Passing by the old school yard, everything just looks so small

Before the drums and the guitars, way back when we knew it all

And she’s sitting right next to me, her hand in the wind

In that old white Cherokee I grew up in

Yeah, it’s crazy

Crazy but it’s true

CHORUS

That you never get a second chance at the first time

We will never be eighteen again

No, you never get a second chance at the first time

It’s so good to see you my old friend

It’s good to see you again

Can you believe it? How much everything has changed?

Well, they shut down the old diner

And they put in some new chain

You know it’s so good to see you

Man, your hair had got so long

It feels like it’s been forever

Used to sing you that old song

With you sitting right next to me, your hand in the wind

In that old white Cherokee I grew up in

Yeah, it’s crazy

Crazy ‘cause it’s true

CHORUS

Well, you know they say that growing up is hard

It’s so hard to think of how we almost got so far

Do you remember on the night of our first kiss?

Baby, didn’t it feel just a little bit like this?

With you sitting right next to me, your hand in the wind

In that old white Cherokee I grew up in

Yeah, it’s crazy

Crazy ‘cause it’s true

CHORUS
