People say you're too young and it's only a fad
Love can mess you around
It can rule your head, it can bring you pain
For the first time we fall in love
For the emotional pressures and stresses of it
The first time we fall in love
It can treat you well, it can treat you mean
Love can be exciting, it can be a bloody bore
The first time we fall in love
My world came crashing down, it shook me to the core
The first time we fall in love
But we're too blind to realize that we are totally unprepared
Love can be like a dull routine
We think it's forever, the first time we fall in love
Time goes by but we never forget
Can make you sad, it can keep you awake
The first time we fall in love
Love can be a pleasure or nothing but a chore
First love can be such a strain
The first time we fall in love
It can run you around until you're out of steam
The first time we fall in love
The first time we fall in love
It can drive you mad
And when it ends it seems such a shame
But they'll never know the feelings we show
The first time I fell out of love, it knocked me through the floor
Love can pick you up, it can bring you down
And I was much too young and I wasn't equipped
We always treasure, the first time we fall in love
I was unprepared 'cause I was only a kid
The way that she looked the first time we met
Those other romances come and go but we cherish the memory of
But oh, I'll never forget
