The Kinks - The First Time We Fall in Love lyrics
[The Kinks - The First Time We Fall in Love lyrics]
How well I remember my very first love affair
Those juvenile fantasies and innocent
Dreams we shared
But we're too blind to realize
That we are totally unprepared
For the first time we fall in love
We think it's forever
The first time we fall in love
We always treasure the first time
We fall in love
Those other romances come and go
But we cherish the memory of
The first time we fall in love
First love can be such a strain
It can rule your head, it can bring you pain
And when it ends it seems such a shame
The first time we fall in love
Can make you sad, it can keep you awake
It can drive you mad
People say you're too young and
It's only a fad
The first time we fall in love
The first time we fall in love
The first time I fell out of love
It knocked me through the floor
My world came crashing down
It shook me to the core
I was unprepared 'cos I was only a kid
And I was much too young
And I wasn't equipped
For the emotional pressures and
Stresses of it but oh, I'll never forget
The way that she looked the first time we met
Time goes by but we never forget
The first time we fall in love
Love can be exciting, it can be a bloody bore
Love can be a pleasure or nothing but a chore
Love can be like a dull routine
It can run you around until
You're out of steam
It can treat you well, it can treat you mean
Love can mess you around
Love can pick you up, it can bring you down
But they'll never know the feelings we show
The first time we fall in love
The first time we fall in love
Those juvenile fantasies and innocent
Dreams we shared
But we're too blind to realize
That we are totally unprepared
For the first time we fall in love
We think it's forever
The first time we fall in love
We always treasure the first time
We fall in love
Those other romances come and go
But we cherish the memory of
The first time we fall in love
First love can be such a strain
It can rule your head, it can bring you pain
And when it ends it seems such a shame
The first time we fall in love
Can make you sad, it can keep you awake
It can drive you mad
People say you're too young and
It's only a fad
The first time we fall in love
The first time we fall in love
The first time I fell out of love
It knocked me through the floor
My world came crashing down
It shook me to the core
I was unprepared 'cos I was only a kid
And I was much too young
And I wasn't equipped
For the emotional pressures and
Stresses of it but oh, I'll never forget
The way that she looked the first time we met
Time goes by but we never forget
The first time we fall in love
Love can be exciting, it can be a bloody bore
Love can be a pleasure or nothing but a chore
Love can be like a dull routine
It can run you around until
You're out of steam
It can treat you well, it can treat you mean
Love can mess you around
Love can pick you up, it can bring you down
But they'll never know the feelings we show
The first time we fall in love
The first time we fall in love
