if you've never let your imagination take over
and felt yourself fly above everything tying you down

if you've never known what it's like to be alive
and feel emotion running through each and every vein

if you've never breathed in the air around you
and realised that maybe, just maybe, there's something there to live for

if you've never suspected that there might be a meaning
a reason for the suffering that makes it all worthwhile

if you've never fallen in love with the way he looks at you
and the way his eyes say everything you're wanting to

if you've never let yourself surrender
let your defences down and allowed yourself to feel safe

if you've never let yourself let go
and forgotten to be what they want you to be

if you've never laid on the grass and looked up at the stars
and imagined them shining just for you

if you've never sat out in the rain
and let it wash away every broken tear

if you've never lost yourself in a moment
when all of a sudden nothing else matters

if you've never taken a mental photograph
of a memory you want to keep forever and always

if you've never found something to believe in
and held on to that for all that you're worth

if you've never felt so much emotion
that you wanted to write down everything that made you feel alive

then this is for you

- there's a first time for everything -
