The First Time I Fell in Love

I was only 17, watching Golden State upon the silver screen
The first time I fell in love
Second Saturday of July in the parking lot at Pally High
The first time I fell in love
It was rollerblades and cigarettes, EDM dubbed on cassette
Just me and nobody else

On this topsy turvy, wild and whirly in a hurry, full of worry, roller coaster ride
The first time I fell
In love with myself

There were morning glories trailing up the vine like a kelp forest that otters climb
The first time I fell in love
The coffee shop was cranking punk rock, the marching band played down the block
The first time I fell in love
It was fandangos on the stage where I sang the Alabama getaway
Just me and nobody else

On this topsy turvy, wild and whirly in a hurry, full of worry, roller coaster ride
The first time I fell
In love with myself

I always thought love was for somebody else
Mother, a brother, a friend
But it came to me so easily
The kind that comes from within
Now, looking back at the photographs, I just have to laugh when I think of that
First time I fell in love
And all through the years, all the wasted tears, all the hopes and fears
I can see so clear the first time I fell in love

So if you're wise, just step inside, close your eyes and hold on tight
Just you and nobody else
On this topsy turvy, wild and whirly in a hurry, full of worry, roller coaster ride
The first time you fell
In love with yourself
