For the First time - by The Script
"For the First time," by The Script is about a man and a woman falling apart because of his job and his drinking habits. In the beginning of the song the man got a job and by the end he lost everything, the job and his girlfriend. The pharse "For the first time" means after waking up in the morning, not remembering anything from the night before because you were so drunk and finally remembering for the first time. Throughout the song the couple tries to work it out but really can't because they get drunk and say nice things but don't remember in the morning. This song uses a lot of repetition one example is, "Trying to make it work, but, man, these times are hard." There is some lines that rhyme but this song is considered free verse. The Script sings this song really well, they have that type of voice where you can't help but sing along and get it stuck in your head. This song means so much more then what is written just like many other songs sung by them. The music by The Script is always so moving too.
She's all laid up in bed with a broken heart
While I'm drinking Jack all alone at my local bar and we don't know how
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 know I can't seem to find the time
I got a new job now on the unemployment line and we don't know how
How we got into this mess, is it God's test? Some one help us 'cause we're doing our best
Trying to make it work, but, man, these times are hard
But we're gonna stop by drinking our 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 door withher head held high
While I lost my job but didn't lose my pride, and we both know how
How we're gunna make it work but 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 stop by drinking our 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
drinking our 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
We just got the feeling that were 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
