First Love

This is all I want

That the love I have for you

Doesn't fade along with youth

Can you help with that

The reason that I ask

I've seen far too many friends

Walk away and not come back

I want more than that

I won't wash away

Like branches in rain

I'd rather be kindling in the light

Set me on fire like

I've never known

I want to love you more

as life goes on

So all of my days I'll place

My first love first again

This is all I pray

Over everything I ask

That my friends one day come back

Can you help with that

God I know you can

‘Cause the fire won't mean a thing

If it ends right here with me

You want more than that

The river runs fast

But you wait at the banks

And pull us like

driftwood from the wild

So set me on fire

like I've never known

I want to love you

more as life goes on

So all of my days I'll place

My first love first again

Once I was drifting

but you called me home

So I'll give my life

for the ones still lost

And I'll see my friends reclaim

Their first love first again

So set me on fire

like I've never known

I want to love you

more as life goes on

And all of my days I'll place

My first love first again

Once I was drifting

but you called me home

So I'll give my life

for the ones still lost

And I'll see my friends reclaim

Their first love first again

You'll see this world return

And your first love love you first
