Ed Sheeran - "First Times" Lyrics

 



Ed Sheeran Lyrics

"First Times"


I thought it'd feel different playing Wembley

80,000 singing with me

It's what I've been chasing 'cause this is the dream


When it was all over, I cleared out the room

Grabbed a couple beers, just me and you

Then we start talking the way that we do


Ain't it funny how the simplest things in life can make a man

Little moments that pass us by

Oh, but I remember


The first kiss, the first night, the first song that made you cry

The first drink, red wine, on a step in Brooklyn

I still feel the first fight, but we both made it out alive

And I can't wait to make a million more first times


The greatest thing that I have achieved

Is four little words down on one knee

You said, "Darling, are you joking?"

And I just said, "Please."


Ain't it funny how the simplest things in life can make a man

Little moments that pass us by

Oh, but I remember


The first kiss, the first night, the first song that made you cry

The first look in your eyes when I said, "I love you."

I can still feel the butterflies from when we stumbled home that night

I can't wait to make a million more first times


Ain't it funny how the simplest things in life can make a man

Little moments that pass us by

Oh, but I remember


The first kiss, first night, first song that made you cry

First dance in moonlight in your parents' garden

I can't wait to see everything that's yet to be

Our first child, and then a million more first times

Ed Sheeran shared with Apple Music the following story about "First Times", "We were living in this house in Nashville, which had an amazing wine cellar, and all of my friends had these weed pens. We'd finish a day of sessions, have a load of wine, get on the weed pens, watch an 'Avengers' movie and just smash Doritos. One night, Fred is like, 'Hey, man, can you re-vocal this?' And I could barely keep my eyes open. I was not a functioning human. I sung it once and that's the version on the song, which is why it's gentle and delicate. Because I was almost gone."
