For the First Time
The Script(더 스크립트) Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

She's all laid up in bed with a broken heart
While I'm drinking Jack all alone in my local bar
And we don't know how we got into this mad situation
Only doing things out of frustration

Trying to make it work but man these times are hard
She needs me now but I can't seem to find a time
I've got a new job now in the unemployment line
And we don't know how we got into this mess it's a gods test
Someone help us 'cause we're doing our best

Trying to make it work but man these times are hard
But we're gonna start by drinking old cheap bottles of wine
Sit talking up all night
Saying things we haven't for a while, a while yeah
We're smiling but we're close to tears
Even after all these years
We just now got the feeling that we're meeting
For the first time

She's in line at the dole with her head held high
While I just lost my job but didn't lose my pride
But we both know how we're gonna make it work when it hurts
When you pick yourself up you get kicked to the dirt

Trying to make it work but man these times are hard
But we're gonna start by drinking old cheap bottles of wine
Sit talking up all night
Doing things we haven't for a while, a while yeah
Smiling but we're close to tears
Even after all these years
We just now got the feeling that we're meeting
For the first time

Drinking old cheap bottles of wine
Sit talking up all night
Saying things we haven't for a while, a while yeah
We're smiling but we're close to tears
Even after all these years
We just now got the feeling that we're meeting
For the first time
For the first time
Oh, for the first time
Yeah, for the first time
Just now got the feeling that we're meeting
For the first time

Oh these times are hard
Yeah they're making us crazy
Don't give up on me baby
Oh these times are hard
Yeah they're making us crazy
Don't give up on me baby

Oh these times are hard
Yeah they're making us crazy
Don't give up on me baby

Oh these times are hard




Yeah they're making us crazy
Don't give up on me baby

Overall Meaning

The song “For The First Time” by The Script/Musicfire.in talks about a couple who is going through a tough time in their relationship due to their financial struggles. The woman is lying in bed with a broken heart while the man is drinking alone at the local pub. They both don't know how they ended up in this situation, but they're only doing things out of frustration. The man has a new job in the unemployment line, and the woman is in line at the dole, but they still don't know how to make things work. The chorus talks about how they're going to start by drinking old cheap bottles of wine and spend the night talking like they used to do a while ago. They're smiling, but they're close to tears, and they feel like they're meeting for the first time.


The song is a reflection of the hardships many couples face in their relationships, especially during tough economic times. The couple is trying to make things work, but the stress of their financial struggles is taking a toll on their relationship. Instead of giving up on each other, they decide to start fresh and work on their relationship by spending time together.


The song is a reminder that when everything is falling apart, the only thing we can rely on is our relationships with our loved ones. The couple finds solace in each other despite the hard times they're going through. Ultimately, the song gives hope to those who are struggling in their relationships and reminds us that it's never too late to start anew.
