You were laughing in the hallway
Shoes untied
Summer on your sleeve
I was hiding in my headphones
But your eyes still found me
You were tracing hearts on windows
Fog and fingerprints and light
We were clumsy
We were certain
Every promise felt like right
First time diving in your eyes
Hands shaking
Hearts open wide
Paper-thin devotion
Still it felt like the whole sky
I didn’t know how much I’d break
Didn’t know how much I’d take
From that first love
First touch
First time diving in your eyes
You were waiting at the bus stop
Rain on my denim shirt
Lips turned blue
Shared your jacket
Shared your secrets
Every truth felt brand new
Now that corner feels much smaller
When I pass
I barely breathe
All those versions of us flicker
Then they disappear in me
First time diving in your eyes
Hands shaking
Hearts open wide
Paper-thin devotion
Still it felt like the whole sky
I didn’t know how much I’d lose
Didn’t know what I would choose
From that first love
First touch
First time diving in your eyes
We were innocent
And reckless
Thought that growing up was far
Didn’t know that letting go
Could still keep someone in your heart
So I bless the way you held me
And the way it had to end
You were never meant to stay
But you taught me how to mend
First time diving in your eyes
Hands shaking
Hearts open wide
Paper-thin devotion
Still it felt like the whole sky
Now I see the paths we missed
Smile at what can’t be fixed
From that first love
First touch
First time diving in your eyes
