First Place

(album: Powerlines - 2023)

You got your eyes closed, feet up on the dashboard
You care less every time I try and say more
Do you feel anything anymore?
(Ah)
Relationship deal breakers never seemed to phase us
We used to bank on time alone to save us
Now is that possible anymore?
(Ah)

How many nights can we say we'll change?
How many times can the same hearts break?
If it were a competition we'd be winning first place
(Ah)

If we could start over we might be okay
But every second chance we get further away
We're never getting back to how we felt in the first place
How we felt in the first place
How we felt in the

The first place I admitted that I loved you
Standing on opposite sides of your bedroom
Do you feel anything anymore?
(Ah)
The first place that we talked about forever
On the beach we were shivering together
How naive we believed somehow we were unstoppable and anything was possible
(Ah)

How many nights can we say we'll change?
How many times can the same hearts break?
If it were a competition we'd be winning first place
(Ah)

If we could start over we might be okay
But every second chance we get further away
We're never getting back to how we felt in the first place
How we felt in the first place
How we felt in the first place
Can't go back to the first place
How we felt in the first place

How many nights can we say we'll change?
How many times can the same hearts break?
If it were a competition we'd be winning first place (Place)

If we could start over we might be okay
But every second chance you get further away
We're never getting back to how we felt in the first place
How we felt in the first place
How we felt in the first place
We can't go back to the first place
To how we felt in the first place
