I'm in love with my lover I'm in love with my lover I'm in love with my lover For the first time Consoles me when I'm sad She scolds me when I'm bad She holds me when I'm weak Sedates me when I'm mad She lends me when I'm poor And mends me with a cure It makes me wonder why I never saw it before I'm in love with my lover I'm in love with my lover I'm in love with my lover For the first time She grounds me when I'm high Surrounds me when I cry She found me in the dark And brought me to the light She loves me 'cause I'm me She's the bird and I'm the bee It makes me wonder why It took me so long to see That I'm in love with my lover I'm in love with my lover I'm in love with my lover For the first time I can't say what changed But it won't be the same The words 'I love you' are no longer Just words that I say 'Cause I'm in love with my lover I'm in love with my lover I'm in love with my lover For the first time For the first time For the first time Oh, for the first time
