First Night

First Night - John Taglieri

When they first laid eyes on each other

They were only just fourteen

Neither one knew they had fallen

They'd get to know what it means

But the first time that he held her hand

The stars burned oh so bright

And they didn't even know it

But they fell in love on that first night

By twenty one they'd gotten married

With their first child on the way

They both knew it was forever

And they thought of all the ways

How their love grew to a roaring flame

That kept their lives so bright

They just smile and remember

How they fell in love on that first night

Now all the dreams they had as children

Are starting coming true

And they knew they'd get by alright

They just smile at each other

How they fell in love on that first night

Fifty years go by so quickly

When your love is heaven sent

But they both can still remember

Where every moment went

And all the pictures hanging up

On the wall

Tell the story of a love so right

And though a lifetime has passed

They're still in love like they were

On that first night

They just hold each other close

And dream of how they loved

On that first night
