First Night

(J. Taglieri)
When they first laid eyes on each other
They were only just fourteen
Neither one knew they had fallen
They'd yet to know what it means
But the first time that he held her hand
The stars burned oh so bright
And they didn't even know it
But they fell in love on that first night
By twenty one they'd gotten married
With their first child on the way
They both knew it was forever
And they thought of all the ways
How their love grew to a roaring flame
That kept their lives so bright
They just smile and remember
How they fell in love on that first night
Now all the dreams they had as children
Are finally coming true
And they knew they'd get by alright
They just smile and remember
How they fell in love on that first night
Fifty years go by so quickly
When your love is heaven sent
And they both can still remember
Where every moment went
And all the pictures hanging up
On the wall
Tell the story of a love so right
And though a lifetime has passed
They're still in love like they were
On that first night
They just hold each other close
And dream of how they loved
On that first night
