The first time I looked at you
And felt the way you looked at me
Then everything I thought was true collapsed
I know you felt the same
You were so beautiful then
Like something I could never reach
And my heart beat once
So afraid of what you could become
But every time I lied to myself
I saw the truth in you
Now you're standing here today
With all I've ever wanted
And my heart beats once
And say you want me here
And I'll open my door
And give you each day anew
Let me be the first
So life finally begins here
We cry away what was before
Then we fall asleep so close together
That the day wakes up all too soon
For this heaven I have reached
And for all that I now understand
My heart will beat once more
And say you want me here
And I'll open my door
And give you each day anew
Let me be the first
And give you each day anew
Let me be the first
