First Love
Nikka Costa

Everyone can see


There's a change in me
They all say
I'm not the same kid I used to be

Don't go out and play


I just dream all day
They don't know what's wrong with me
And I'm too shy to say

chorus; It's my first love


What I'm dreaming of
When I go to bed
When I lay my head upon my pillow
Don't know what to do

My first love
Thinks that I'm too young
He doesn't even know
Wish that I could show him what I'm feeling
Cause I'm feeling my first love

Mirror on the wall


Does he care at all?
Will he ever notice me
Could he ever fall?

Tell me, teddy bear


Why love is so unfair
Will I ever find a way
And answer to my pray

Chorus: For my first love


What I dreaming of
When I go to bed
When I lay my head upon my pillow
Don't know what to do

My first love
Thinks that I'm too young
He doesn't even know
Wish that I could show him what I'm feeling
Cause I'm feeling my first love
