First Love

Lyrics

I'm somewhere way past lonely And I'm thinking about the way it used to be When my life was so full and free I don't remember leaving But looking back, I've come a long, long way I guess what I'm trying to say I thought I was a captive With no freedom of my own But the further I traveled The more I longed for home I'm going back to my first love For the fire burns and my heart still yearns To go back to my first love Well, I never should have walked away Look at where my heart's been Every road just seemed to end But to find the peace that's waiting up ahead I've got to go back to my first love No, I can't explain it How the Father always seems to know This struggle within my soul Although He could have held on His love was strong enough to set me free Without letting go of me Don't know how He found me In this barren desert land The springs of living water Are calling me again I'm going back to my first love For the fire burns and my heart still yearns To go back to my first love I never should have walked away Look at where my heart's been How every road just seemed to end But to find the peace that's waiting up ahead I've got to go back to my first love Seems every star in the sky Has been waiting for this day They dance through the heavens Leading the way Leading the way I'm going back to my first love For the fire burns and my heart still yearns To go back to my first love I never should have walked away Look at where my heart's been Every road just seemed to end But to find the peace that's waiting up ahead I've got to go back to my first love Back to my first love Back to my heart (Back to my first love) Back to my love Back to where it started (Back to my first love) Well, back, back, back to my first love, yeah (Back to my first love)
