G#                     D#sus4  D#
Valentines, those butterflies
C#                G#
Gets me out best top inside
                     D#sus4    D#
Got me feeling like a kid again
    C#                         G#
Oh I even run and run, telling all my friends
           Fm        Cm
Now every day has a reason
       C#           D#
Every night is the real thing, woahhh

Chorus:
G#                D#
Girl you make it feel
C#        G#
Like the first time
 D#                 C#
Like there's never been another
G#                D#
Girl you make it real,
C#        G#
Like the first time
D#            C#             A#m
Everytime you lay down by my side
  D# C#         G#        D# C#
Ohh,   it's the first time

Every moment spent with you
Something different always something new
I watch you sleeping, I hear you sigh
Oh I even love the way you cry
Now every kiss is a season,
and every touch keeps me believing

Chorus

It's the last time you'll be alone
I'm there for you
I walk a circle, I see this through
I need you here to write this song
You make me feel like I belong
Every time you lay down by my side
It's the first time
Mmm
Ooh yeah yeah
Ooh yeah

Now every day has a reason
Every night is the real thing, ohhh

Chorus

It's the first time
