Lyrics

Sunrise in the summer sky, a perfect love in flight
Shadows flew, the hours grew till we never said goodnight
It's like I merely turned my head and you were there
It felt so sure I'd forgotten to be scared
As we threw away the loneliness we shared

Chorus:
Only first love grows this grace
Only first love grows this grace
There's a bounty full of gold still 'cause we won and kept the prize
It's a mountain not a molehill; you're the best thing in my life

Now flames chase time across the sky, how suddenly it dies
The passion that we held so deep runs scared in older eyes
When we're done the words we want will flow
And cradle all the truths that we both know
From high above the angels watch us go, and they sing
(chorus)

No love is fixed without some give
To let hearts breath, not break to live
When perfect luck seems double-crossed
Just take a breath and weigh the cost,
Then nothing's lost, and we'll sing

Only first love grows this grace
Only first love grows this grace
So we never reached perfection, who can ever get it right
Let's just ride the whirl, we'll show the world to believe in love's first light
There's a bounty full of gold still 'cause we won and kept the prize
It's a mountain not a molehill,
You're the best thing in my life
