[Intro]

[strings, piano, drum]

Before I discovered a life so true,
My first flame of love began here and grew.

[Verse 1]

Here, in that crowded room so long ago
Her eyes like summer stars, drawing me from afar
No face could match the grace that pulled me in
There, with her gentle smile breaking through the din
The way her laughter lit the air, wild and free.

[Verse 2]

Someone called my name, but my heart was hers alone
I felt love rush like fire through my veins
And in her gaze, my world was born anew

[Chorus 1]

But to hold her was to feel my soul ignite
Knowing this fire would never dim with time
Each one trusting that our bond would only grow

[instrumental]

[Verse 3]

Seeing her beauty, unchanged, I’m lost again
I felt love rush like fire through my veins.

[Verse 4]

And in her gaze, my world was born anew
But to hold her was to feel my soul ignite
Knowing this fire would never dim with time

[Chorus 2]

Each one trusting that our bond would only grow
Seeing her beauty, unchanged, I’m lost again
Through years of storms and joys, that spark endures

[Outro]

First flame of love, forever pure.
