First Life Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Maybe, I should take a break,
take a rest from falling so hard
I need to learn to be alone
‘Cause how could I know what
I want if I ain’t never been on my own?
Big, bad and grown

[Pre-Chorus]
Skeletons keep haunting me, wishful thinkin’
That they go away, if I wish ’em bad I’d paint them red
Hangin’ onto words that you said
I

[Chorus]
Girl, I ain’t on my first life
It’ll be alright
Don’t change your mind about me
Let your guard down for tonight
Don’t wonder why
We’re just passin’ time

[Post-Chorus]
‘Cause you deserve what I’m givin’
And you are worth every minute
It’s only time that we’re spendin’
Want me to be herе, I’m willin’
All of this love that we’re makin’
I wanna givе it, not take it
We could just be here, I’m patient
Girl, I ain’t on my first life

[Verse 2]
Me neither
Want you, don’t need you
Promoted to please you
There’s no reason to be
Holdin’ back like my legs
I’ll stay open
To all the ways that we’re growin’
Sure not gon’ fix what ain’t broken

[Bridge]
What if there’s a time and
place that we could go to be by ourselves?
Be all the ways that we feel
It’s funny how you never know how things could go
We’re just you and I
And no extra eyes

[Pre-Chorus]
And these skeletons keep haunting me, wishful thinking
That they been away, if I wish ’em bad I’d painted ’em red
Hangin’ onto words that you said
Girl, I

[Chorus]
Girl, I ain’t on my first life
It’ll be alright
Don’t change your mind about me
Let your guard down for tonight
Don’t wonder why
We’re just passin’ time

[Post-Chorus]
‘Cause you deserve what I’m givin’
And you are worth every minute
It’s only time that we’re spendin’
Want me to be here, I’m willin’
All of this love that we’re makin’
I wanna give it, not take it
We could just be here, I’m patient
Girl, I ain’t on my first life
