first time again

the mention of your name

that's all it takes

my heart re-breaks

my whole world shakes

and it's flashback driveway pouring rain

nothing i could do nothing i could say

to slow you down

and right now

it's like the first time watching you walk away

begging baby please just stay

feeling every second of the clock tick by

on an endless night

the first time seeing you with someone new

dying inside trying to play it cool

it don't matter how long it's been

i'm always missing you

for the first time again

it could start with an old song

feeling you come on

it could be at a party

seeing everybody

and i'm right back wishing you were right back here

wishing that missing you would just disappear

but it don't and it won't

and baby here i go

it's like the first time watching you walk away

begging baby please just stay

feeling every second of the clock tick by

on an endless night

the first time seeing you with someone new

dying inside trying to play it cool

it don't matter how long it's been

i'm always missing you

for the first time again

oh

for the first time again

it don't let up

it don't get better

hell it just might last forever

but it all takes me back

it all takes me back

to the first time watching you walk away

begging baby please just stay

feeling every second of the clock tick by

on an endless night

the first time seeing you with someone new

dying inside trying to play it cool

it don't matter how long it's been

i'm always missing you

for the first time again

i'm always missing you

for the first time again

for the first time again
