First Time Around
{Medium Pace}

[verse 1:]

You've promised again and again,
that you'd never leave.
Every now and then
you'd reassure me.
I thought that you
were the type of girl
that'd stay true
and not wreck my world.

[chorus:]

It's the first time around,
that I knew somehow,
wouldn't last forever.
I know some way
that I could change,
we'd have to work together.
Look at me now,
I've learned...
from the first time around.

[verse 2:]

Second chances bring,
a more lasting love.
I see you and think,
that someone likes me from above.
Our luck has changed so much
from where we were before,
I still love you a bunch
I keep coming back for more.

(chorus)

[bridge:]

What could the future hold,
for us now.
It can't be foretold,
I know we'll work it out.

(chorus)
