I love looking at you
With you I'm home
Hold me in your arms
And my heart opens
After so many years
I feel just like the first day
I live this moment with you
Like it's the first time
Like the joy of standing on the highest peak
Like it's the first time
Like seeing the sky-blue at dawn
Like it's the first time
Like walking through a snow-white world of magic
Like it's the first time
Like spotting the summit on the horizon
Like it's the first time
We always trusted each other
Leaned on each other and loved
We never flew too high
We lived for each other
And I love looking back with you
I'm proud of what was
I rest in your arms
Like it's the first time
Like the joy of standing on the highest peak
Like it's the first time
Like seeing the sky-blue at dawn
Like it's the first time
Like walking through a snow-white world of magic
Like it's the first time
Like spotting the summit on the horizon
Like it's the first time
I live this moment with you
And feel just like the first day
I love you today just like back then
Like it's the first time
Like the joy of standing on the highest peak
Like it's the first time
Like seeing the sky-blue at dawn
Like it's the first time
Like walking through a snow-white world of magic
Like it's the first time
Like spotting the summit on the horizon
Like it's the first time
Like it's the first time

SONG MEANING

"Als Wär's Das Erste Mal" celebrates the magic of a love that never ages. Even after “so many years,” the singer still feels the same heart-flutter he experienced on day one. By comparing every shared moment to standing on the highest mountain, gazing into a bright morning sky, or wandering through fresh snow, Unheilig paints love as an endless series of breathtaking firsts. The lyrics remind us that real romance is not about grand gestures; it is about choosing, again and again, to see your partner with fresh eyes.

Trust, gratitude, and wonder power the song’s core message. The couple has “always trusted” and “built on each other,” yet they have stayed grounded, never “flying too high.” Their reward is a relationship that still feels brand-new, full of excitement and pride in the journey they have traveled together. In short, this heartfelt German ballad invites listeners to treasure each moment with someone they love—just as if it were the very first time.
