I would climb any mountain Sail across the stormy sea If that's what it takes me baby To show how much you mean to me And I guess that it's just the woman in you That brings out the man in me I know I can't help myself You're all in the world to me It feels like the first time Feels like the very first time It feels like the first time It feels like the very first time I have waited a lifetime Spent my time so foolishly But now that I found you Together we'll make history And I know that it must be the woman in you That brings out the man in me I know I can't help myself You're all my eyes can see And it feels like the first time Like it never did before Feels like the first time Like we've opened up the door Feels like the first time Like it never will again, never again It feels like the first time Feels like the very first time It feels like the first time It feels like the very first time Won't you open up the door It feels like the first time Feels like the very first time It feels like the first time It feels like the very first time
