Once I was afraid I'd find you
Your patient, trembling eyes would unwind me
And all I've become
Once I was afraid I'd fall in love with you
For the first time

Let's go set fire to all these houses
The smoke will billow up with our laughter
The flames will lick your skin
And I'll fall in love with you
For the first time

For the first time

Shout into the ocean, show your teeth
Blame it on the wanderings of the sea
His fear is shining plainly through your tears
Staying every night, or so it seems
With bears who always rip at all your seams
Come back into the water, holding tight
