For The First Time (BBC Live Version)

She's all laid up in bed with a broken heart

While I'm drinking jack all alone in my local bar

And we don't know how

How we got into this mad situation

Only doing things out of frustration

Trying to make it work

But man these times are hard

She needs me now but

I can't seem to find the time

I got a new job now in

The unemployment line

And we don't know how

How we got into this mess is it a God's test

Someone help us cause

We're doing our best

Trying to make it work

But man these times are hard

But we're gonna start by

Drinking old cheap bottles of wine

**** talking up all night

Saying things we haven't

For a while a while yeah

We're smiling but we're close to tears

Even after all these years

We just now got the

Feeling that we're meeting

For the first time OOH

She's in line at the dole with her head held high

While I just lost my job I didn't lose my pride

And we both know how

How we're going make it work when it hurts

When you pick yourself up you get kicked to the dirt

Trying to make it work

But man these times are hard

But we're gonna start by

Drinking old cheap bottles of wine

**** talking up all night

Saying things we haven't for a while

A while yeah

Smiling but we're close to tears

Even after all these years

We just now got the feeling tha

T we're meeting

For the first time OOH

But we're gonna start by

Drinking old cheap bottles of wine

**** talking up all night

Saying things we haven't for a while

We're smiling but we're close to tears

Even after all these years

We just now got the feeling that we're meeting

For the first time OOH

Oh these times are hard

Yeah they're making us crazy

Don't give up on me baby

Oh these times are hard

Yeah they're making us crazy

Don't give up on me baby

Oh these times are hard

Yeah they're making us crazy

Don't give up on me baby

Oh these times are hard

Yeah they're making us crazy

Don't give up on me baby
