My First Love

Verse 1 Sometimes I still find myself thinking of you Wondering where you are, if your skies are blue You were my first love, a place I used to stay But my heart doesn’t ache like it did yesterday Chorus Oh, my dear, I still hold love for you Not the kind that hurts, but something true My heart still races, not from holding on But from the joy of knowing your pain is gone Verse 2 Yes, I loved you, cried when you left Sometimes I wonder, would I have been blessed If I had stayed, if I kept loving strong? Would I have avoided the pain that came along? (Repeat Chorus) Oh, my dear, I still hold love for you Not the kind that hurts, but something true My heart still races, not from holding on But from the joy of knowing your pain is gone Verse 3 I used to live in all the "what ifs" What if I’d spoken more, leaned into your kiss? What if I’d silenced all the doubts in my head? Would we be something else instead? (Repeat Chorus) Oh, my dear, I still hold love for you Not the kind that hurts, but something true My heart still races, not from holding on But from the joy of knowing your pain is gone Bridge Go live your life, go chase your light We didn’t last, but you made love feel right You showed me what love could be Now I know what I deserve, what should stay, what should leave Final Chorus Oh, my dear, I still hold love for you Not the kind that aches, but something true My heart still races, not from missing you But from peace in knowing you found what’s due
