The Maccabees - First Love lyrics

rate me

First love,

Last love,

Only love,

It's only love.

First love,

Last love,

Only love,

It's only love.

Do you miss home?

Do you miss home?

And are you cool?

Symmetrical?

Let's get married,

And tick the boxes,

Says, and so she says,

Oh lets get married,

And tick the boxes.

Do you want to be alone?

D'you wanna be alone?

And are you cool?

Symmetrical,

Hypocritical,

Analytical?

So critical,

Nothing's perfect, and I'm hoping I'll do, do,

But I will not do.

Cause nothing's perfect, and I'll have to make do.

And it's my mistake,

And no mistake,

And I would take it back if I could.

So stay with me tonight.

And I've made my bed, I'm lying here,

And pillow-talking into it,

I've make my bed, I'm lying here,

It enticed you with its leopard print,

And matching velvet duvet.

First love,

Last love,

Only love,

It's only love.

First love,

Last love,

Only love,

It's only love.

It's only love,

Only love,

Only love.

It's only love.*
