The First Time
I have a lover, a lover like no otherShe got soul, soul, soul, sweet soulAnd she teach me how to sing.
Shows me colours when there's none to seeGives me hope when I can't believeThat for the first time I feel love.
I have a brother, when I'm a brother in needI spend my whole time runningHe spends his running after me.
I feel myself goin' downI just call and he comes around.But for the first time I feel love.
My father is a rich man, he wears a rich man's cloak.He gave me the keys to his kingdom (coming)Gave me a cup of gold.
He said "I have many mansionsAnd there are many rooms to see."But I left by the back doorAnd I threw away the keyAnd I threw away the key.
For the first time, for the first timeFor the first time, I feel love.
