The First Time

Can you believe it?

It's been almost ten years now

And I'm getting that feeling

As we're driving round this town

Passing by the old school yard

Everything just looks so small

Before the drums and the guitars

Way back when we knew it all

And she's sitting right next to me

Hand in the wind

That old white Cherokee I grew up in

Yeah it's crazy

Crazy, but it's true

[Chorus:]

That you never get a second chance at the first time

We will never be eighteen again

No you never get a second chance at the first time

Feels so good to see you my old friend

It's good to see you again

Can you believe it?

How much everything has changed

Well they shut down the old diner

And they put in some new chain

You know it's so good to see

Whoa, man your hair has got so long

Feels like it's been forever

We're still singing that old song

Well she's sitting right next to me

Hand in the wind

That old white Cherokee I grew up in

Yeah it's crazy

Crazy, but it's true

[Chorus:]

That you never get a second chance at the first time

We will never be eighteen again

No you never get a second chance at the first time

Feels so good to see you my old friend

Well you know they say that growing up is hard

Well it's so hard to think of how we almost got so far

Well do you remember the night of our first kiss

Well baby did it feel just a little bit like this

Ooh

Well she's sitting right next to me

Hand in the wind

That old white Cherokee I grew up in

Yeah it's crazy

Crazy, but it's true

[Chorus:]

Well you never get a second chance at the first time

We will never be eighteen again

No you never get a second chance at the first time

Feels so good to see you my old friend

It's good to see you again

It's good to see you again (6x)
