First Time
The Magnolia Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Did you ever feel
Just like someone felt upon the first night?

Birds in them trees
Flowers and the bees
While the sun was shining
As I recall
Did you ever feel
Just like someone felt upon the first night?

When Adam met Eve
And the sweet harmony
A choir was singing
And I held it tight and I said
I just want you to myself
I just want you to feel
Oooo
that you are my queen

Eve, there's no doubt about it
Baby you know who you are
First thign that ever got me off
And all I see, it is you, Eve

First time's love with us both
And I think of you
Oh Eve
I still do
When that same old song
Keeps on playing on and on
And when it does
I wonder if you feel the way I do now honey

Do yu ever feel
just like Adam and Eve
Adam and Eve
Birds in the trees
Flowers and the bees
While the sun it was setting

As I recall
First time's love with us both
And I still care of you
Oh Eve
I still do
When that same old sng
Keeps on playing on and on
And when it does
I wonder if you still feel the way I do now honey

DO you ever feel
Just like Adam and Eve?

Only on the first time baby




Oooo, our love
On the first night

Overall Meaning

The Magnolia's song, "First Time," is a nostalgic tune about a past love and the memories that come with it. The lyrics begin by asking if the listener has ever experienced the same feelings as the singer did on their first night with someone special. The imagery of birds in trees and flowers and bees creates a romantic atmosphere that sets the tone for the rest of the song.


The lyrics then shift to references of Adam and Eve and their first meeting, with the sweet harmony of a choir singing in the background. The singer expresses a desire to have this special person in their life, exclusively, and to treat them like royalty. The chorus repeats, with the singer longing to know if their former love thinks of them in the same way.


As the song progresses, the singer reflects on the first time they fell in love with this person and how they still care for them, even though they are no longer together. The song concludes with the singer wondering if their past love ever feels the same way, and the word "only" emphasizes that the experience of falling in love for the first time is a unique and unforgettable one.
