The First Kiss / Country Love Song

It was late one summer evening, Sun was sinking down the road, You were standing by the old fence, I was trying to find the words to say. You laughed and looked away, girl, Then you turned those eyes to mine, And the whole world seemed to slow down For just a little while. I can still feel that warm breeze, Still hear your heartbeat close to me… Oh, that first kiss, Underneath that fading sky, Two young hearts, Not knowing how to say goodbye. You were shaking, I was nervous, But neither one of us could resist, And if I had a thousand lifetimes, I'd still go back To that first kiss. There was music from a back porch, Crickets singing in the grass, Moonlight dancing on the river, While the evening slowly passed. You whispered, “Don’t forget me,” I said, “How could I forget?” Then you smiled and moved in closer, And I knew I'd never be the same. Some memories fade like old photographs, But that moment's still coming back… Oh, that first kiss, Underneath that fading sky, Two young hearts, Not knowing how to say goodbye. You were shaking, I was nervous, But neither one of us could resist, And if I had a thousand lifetimes, I'd still go back To that first kiss. Years have come and years have gone, We've both traveled different roads, But sometimes when the night is quiet, I can still feel that summer glow. Maybe love was just beginning, Maybe we were just kids, But nothing ever felt as perfect As the night of our first kiss. Oh, that first kiss, Still as sweet as yesterday, Two young hearts, Learning what they couldn't say. You were shaking, I was nervous, And the stars were shining over us, If I could turn the hands of time, I'd go back tonight To that first kiss. Yeah, I'd go back tonight… To that old road in the summertime… Just you and me… And that first kiss.
