"The First Time" Lyrics

This is the first time
I can remember
All of the days
That I almost gave away
Now I can say
I'm not afraid
This is the last time I will cry

This is the song I sing for me
It's everything I want to be
My salvation isn't free
I have to get away

From you
(From you)
From you
(From you)

This is the first time
I can remember
All of the days
That I almost gave away
Now I can say
I'm not afraid
This is the last time I will cry

A perfect world is not for me
It's everything that I cant be
My redemption sets me free
I have to get away

From you
(From you)
From you
(From you)

This is the first time
I can remember
All of the days
That I almost gave away
Now I can say
I'm not afraid
This is the last time I will cry

This is the first time
I can remember
All of the days
That I almost gave away
Now I can say
I'm not afraid
This is the last time I will cry

This is the day
I found a way
To get away
Now I can say
I'm not afraid
Today

This is the first time
I can remember
All of the days
That I almost gave away
Now I can say
I'm not afraid
This is the last time I will cry

This is the first time
I can remember
All of the days
That I almost gave away
Now I can say
I'm not afraid
This is the last time I will cry
