LETRA
The first time you see her

No bolt from the blue
Just something so quiet
That's waiting for you
With no one to tell you where you've got to go
The first time it happens you know

The first time you see her

No magical change
No angels appearing
No dreams to arrange
Just warmer and colder that springtime or snow
The first time it happens you know

And so you fall

And how complete it is
And for each moment that it lasts
How sweet it is

The first time together

How simple, how rare
And just when you thought you'd forgot how to care
And though you feel much more than you'd dare to show
The first time it happens you know
