The First Day
Beyoncé · Other Songs - Beyoncé
remember the first day you smiled at me
you stepped to me and then you said to me
I was the women you dreamed about
remember the first day when you called my house
remember the first day when you took me out
we had butterflies
although we tried to hide it
and we both had a beautiful night
the way we held each others hands
the way we talked
the way we laughed
it felt so good to find true love
I knew right then and there you were the one
ohhh
I know that he loves me cause he told me so
I know that he loves me cause his feelings show
when he stares at me
you see he cares for me
you see how he's so deep in love
I know that he loves me cause it's obvious
I know that he loves me cause it's me he trusts
and he's missin me
if he's not kissin me
and when he looks at me
his brown eyes tell his soul
remember the first day, the first day we kissed
remember the first day we had an arguement
we apologized and then we compromised
and we haven't argued since
remember the first day we stopped playing games
remember the first day you fell in love with me
it felt so good for you to say those words
cause I felt the same way too
the way we held each others hands
the way we talked
the way we laughed
it felt so good to find true love
I knew right then and there you were the one
ohhhh
I know that he loves me cause he told me so
I know that he loves me cause his feelings show
when he stares for me, you see he cares for me
you see how he's so deep in love
I know that he loves me cause it's obvious
I know that he loves me cause it's me he trusts
and he's missin me
if he's not kissin me
and when he looks at me his brown eyes tell his soul
I'm so happy
so happy that your in my life
and baby now that your a part of me
you've showed me
showed me the true meaning of love
and I know he loves me
I know that he loves me cause he told me so
I know that he loves me cause his feelings show
when he stares for me
you see he cares for me
you see how he's so deep in love
I know that he loves me cause it's obvious
I know that he loves me cause it's me he trusts
and he's missin me
if he's not kissin me
and when you looks at me
his brown eyes tell his soul
and when he looks at me his brown eyes tell his soul
