  • The mention of your name
    That's all it takes
    My heart re-breaks
    My whole world shakes
    And it's flashback driveway pouring rain
    Nothing I could do nothing I can say
    To slow you down
    And right now

    It's like the first time watching you walk away
    Begging baby please just stay
    Feeling every second of the clock tick by
    On an endless night
    The first time seeing you with someone new
    Dying inside trying to play it cool
    It don't matter how long it's been
    I'm always missing you
    For the first time again

    Yeah, it could start with an old song
    The feeling you come on
    It could be at a party
    Seeing everybody
    Ooh, and I'm right back wishing you were right back here
    Wishing that missing you would just disappear
    But it don't and it won't
    And baby here I go

    It's like the first time watching you walk away
    Begging baby please just stay
    Feeling every second of the clock tick by
    On an endless night
    The first time seeing you with someone new
    Dying inside trying to play it cool
    It don't matter how long it's been
    I'm always missing you
    For the first time again

    Oh, the first time again
    It don't let up it don't get better
    Hell it just might last forever
    It all takes me back, it all takes me back

    To the first time watching you walk away
    Begging baby please just stay
    Feeling every second of the clock tick by
    On an endless night
    The first time seeing you with someone new
    Dying inside trying to play it cool
    It don't matter how long it's been
    I'm always missing you
    For the first time again

    Yeah
    Ooh, I'm always missing you
    For the first time again
    Hmm yeah
    For the first time again, yeah Writer/s: BENJAMIN MERRITT STENNIS, JARON CALEB BOYER, MICHAEL TYLER SPRAGG, WILLIAM BLAKE BOLLINGER
