In our childhood so many stories
That seemed so ordinary back then
You began to blossom into a woman
And as you did our words grew fewer
With a shy heart I kept my distance
My silent gaze held the love I couldn't say
But the distance between us felt too far to speak
The moment our eyes met
I felt exposed embarrassed by my feelings
Our first kiss froze time the world fell away
And for a moment we forgot everything
That day on the park bench just the two of us
The sincerity in each other's eyes
In that moment the world was only ours
Though our friends teased us
We left that place
But the sweet memory
Will stay with me forever
Somehow we lost each other
And now only distance remains
But the memory of you holds onto me
It won't let go
Time passed and we met briefly once more
We only exchanged glances
For a moment just like back then
These memories haunt my every thought
The memory of a first love once in a lifetime
I still remember
You your touch that kiss from that day
The memory of my first love will forever
Be the once-in-a-lifetime memory
Back when we were just a boy and a girl
The memory of that moment lives on within me
Even after all these years I find myself lost in thoughts of you
As the longing quietly seeps into my heart
Though our friends teased us
We left that place
But the sweet memory
Will stay with me forever
Back when we were just a boy and a girl
The memory of that moment lives on within me
Even after all these years I find myself lost in thoughts of you
As the longing quietly seeps into my heart
