Song lyrics

[Verse 1:]
Is that music in my ear?
It's like I heard nothing for a thousand years,
My eyes were closed, locking in my tears.
I was so surrounded but still all alone,
A great big house but so far from home,
How'd you breathe life in this heart of soul?

[Chorus:]
It's like I can feel, it's like I can breathe,
It's like I can live, it's like I can love
For the first time, for the first time
For the first time, for the first time.

[Verse 2:]
I'm electric, finally exposed,
You see through me, strip off all my clothes,
If this is falling, then let me go, oh!

[Chorus:]
It's like I can feel, it's like I can breathe,
It's like I can live, it's like I can love
For the first time, for the first time
For the first time, for the first time.

[Verse 3:]
I'm finally awake and I can feel my heart,
It's beating like a drum when I'm right here, where you are.
I can feel it, I can feel it, oh!
Can you feel it?

[Chorus: 2x]
It's like I can feel, it's like I can breathe,
It's like I can live, it's like I can love
For the first time, for the first time
For the first time, for the first time.
