The First Time

歌詞

The first time I heard those words a candlelit hall for a secret girl I trembled to become a caged bird the first time I heard those words The first time I saw your face, an elderly woman turned around in her place she held out a hand for the light to shake the first time I saw your face but I don't know you I don't know you I don't know The first time I spoke your name, you were a character in an exhaustible play the imagined master of human game the first time I spoke your name and the first time I sang your verse it was larger than my tongue and so it slurred I couldn't remember who it served the first time I sang your verse no I don't sing it right I don't sing it right I don't sing the first time you called my name it wasn't the one that my friends all say I guess that my name is your name I guess that my new name is your name I guess that my name is your name But I don't know my name I don't know my name I don't know
