Annastasia Baker Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
They say you're really there
You dwell beyond my side
In the portal lands of my natural mind
Is where you sit and stand
But in the ...
That makes me grip you tight
I believe i can hold ur tears
Every moving bold and step
I know that you hold me
My first love
My first love
The lyrics of Annastasia Baker's song First Love are cryptic and evocative, suggesting a deep emotional attachment to someone who exists beyond physical reality. The opening lines express confusion and uncertainty about the nature of this person, suggesting that they are a ghostly presence that exists beyond the singer's conscious awareness. This image builds on the idea of the "portal lands of my natural mind," suggesting that the singer's subconscious is the realm in which this person exists.
However, despite this sense of distance and insubstantiality, the song also includes images of fierce connection and intimacy between the singer and their first love. The lines "That makes me grip you tight / I believe I can hold your tears" suggest that even though the singer may not be able to physically touch their loved one, they feel a strong emotional bond that allows them to comfort and support one another through difficult times.

What is that
What is the feeling that I cannot describe
They say you're really there
Many people have told me that love exists and is real
You dwell beyond my side
Love exists beyond physical proximity
In the portal lands of my natural mind
Love is found in the deepest parts of my subconscious
Is where you sit and stand
Love exists solidly within my thoughts and feelings
But in the...
Even though love is intangible, I feel its presence
That makes me grip you tight
The intense feeling of love makes me hold on tight
I believe i can hold ur tears
I feel like I am able to emotionally support and help my loved one through tough times
And in every take and breathe
In every moment and every breath, I feel the presence of my beloved
Every moving bold and step
In every decision and every action, I feel the guidance of love
I know that you hold me
I feel the comfort and security of being loved
My first love
This is the first time I have felt this intense feeling of love
