There's Always a First Time
Embracing the Unknown: A Journey of Firsts with Silje Nergaard
Lyrics
Never been much for devil-may-care
Expressing a lack of inclination towards reckless or carefree behavior.
Painting the town or letting down hair
Not interested in enjoying nightlife or being spontaneous.
Oh so wary of building on dreams
Approaching dreams cautiously, possibly due to past disappointments.
Afraid to discover all's not what it seems
Fearful of uncovering unpleasant truths and avoiding potential disillusionment.
There's always a first time
Introducing the theme that there's always a first time for new experiences.
How do I know for sure
Expressing uncertainty about a new experience and seeking reassurance.
Now is not mine
Present moment not perceived as belonging to the speaker.
Tell me how I know It's safe to just let g
Requesting guidance on safely embracing the unknown.
Show me some sign
Seeking a tangible indication or signal for reassurance.
There's always a first time
Reiteration of the theme that there's always a first time.
How do I know that you are the right one
Questioning the suitability of a person for a significant first-time experience.
Show me how to loose
Asking for guidance on overcoming doubts and making a choice.
These nagging doubts and choose
Expressing the desire to resolve lingering uncertainties and make a decision.
Not run
Choosing not to run away from the decision or commitment.
Let me then awake to find
Desiring to wake up having abandoned caution and embraced a new experience.
I've left all caution far behind
Expressing a willingness to leave behind reservations and inhibitions.
In the past
Referring to discarding caution as something belonging to the past.
Let my heart be fit to burst
Wishing for the heart to be overwhelmed with unanticipated longing.
With a longing unrehearsed
Desiring an intense and spontaneous emotional experience.
Let it last
Expressing a hope that the intense emotions will endure.
There's always a first time
Reiterating the idea that there's always a first time for new experiences.
Let it be now, and you
Expressing a desire for the current moment to be that first time.
Be that someone
Addressing someone as a potential companion for the new experience.
Who can help me leave
Desiring assistance in leaving the outcome to fate.
In the hands of fate
Entrusting the continuation of the experience to destiny.
What we've begun
Acknowledging the commencement of something significant.
