First Light of Love

Saw you laughing down the hall, bright as morning sun

Back in seventh grade when everything had just begun

Heart would race whenever you would glance my way

Wrote your name in notebooks, didn't know what to say

Butterflies would dance around my head

Every silly word you ever said

Oh, you were my first light of love

A spark that lifted me above

Chasing rainbows, thinking of

All the magic I was dreaming of

Happy just to be near you, oh yeah

Tried to act so cool but stumbled every time

Your laughter turned my nervous lines into a rhyme

After class we'd walk beneath the cherry trees

Thought the world was perfect, just you and me

Butterflies would dance around my head

Every silly word you ever said

Oh, you were my first light of love

A spark that lifted me above

Chasing rainbows, thinking of

All the magic I was dreaming of

Happy just to be near you, oh yeah

Looking back it makes my heart still race

Your smile forever in a special place

Didn't last but that's just fine

First crushes never really leave your mind

Oh, you were my first light of love

A spark that lifted me above

Chasing rainbows, thinking of

All the magic I was dreaming of

Happy just to be near you, oh yeahFirst light shining through

All my dreams began with you
