Don't Think You're The First

The Coral

Don't think you're the first

In the whole universe

To follow your heart

Or gaze at the stars

To stare at the night

To the clear daylight



Don't think you're the first

In the whole universe

To feel sorrow or shame

As you walk in the rain

Do I love you?

Yes I love you or I wouldn't tell you



So don't think you're the first

In the whole universe

To be caught in the act

Numbered and wrecked

Put in your place

Made to feel like a fake



Don't think you're the first

In the whole universe

To be untouched by the time

Think you're one of the kind

Do I love you?

Yes I love you or i wouldn't tell you



So don't think you're the first



Don't think you're the first

In the whole universe

To dance with the light

From the meak to the might

As the birds in the trees

Sing their sweet melodies



Don't think you're the first

In the whole universe

To hear a thousand violins

As the trial begins

Do I love you?

Yes I love you or I wouldn't tell you



So don't think you're the last

To be tied to the mast

While you watch from afar

As your world falls apart

You hang on for help

But the rest help themselves



Don't think you're the last

To be tied to the past

While you future's controled

While the present untold

Do I love you?

Yes I love you or I wouldn't tell you



So don't think you're the first
