Lyrics

First Times

Oh Ricky and Sheryl Anne, best of friends as kids on the street,
?Till one day when the games got old, she gave Rick a peck on his cheek,
Ricky?s heart was a poundin? hard, as his legs gave out from under his feet,
His hand so numb they were cold as ice, yet inside he was a feelin the heat.

Soon enough they were seventeen, both in love their passion was strong,
Then one night through each others? eyes, they knew the time had finally come,
Both excited, both were scared, as the deed was about to be done,
Lookin? back they would one day say, boy was that a lot of fun

The first time, there?s nothing like first times, there?s nothing like the first, there?s no other time,
The first time, there?s nothing like first times, there?s nothing like the first, there?s no better time

Sheryl Anne looked so good in white, she always planned for her special night,
All their friends seemed so envious, and while so young it all seemed so right,
Little cash in their pockets, a first kid a new house in sight,
They laughed it off both together, all in stride they knew their future was bright

The first time, there?s nothing like first times, there?s nothing like the first, there?s no other time,
The first time, there?s nothing like first times, there?s nothing like the first, there?s no better time

And in times nights grew colder, driven by dreams
Soon a little bit older, and not so green,
And while each needed a shoulder, life got routine,
?Till they looked back and remembered, how they felt when it had been

The first time, there?s nothing like first times, there?s nothing like the first, there?s no other time,
The first time, there?s nothing like first times, there?s nothing like the first, there?s no better time
