For the First Time - Live in Tokyo - The Script

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

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 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?

Someone help us 'cause we're doing our best

Trying to make

work, but, man, these times are hard

But we're gonna stop by drinking our cheap bottles of wine

Shit 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, and we both now how

How we're going to make it work when it hurts,

when you pick yourself up you get kicked to the dirt

Tryin' to make it work, but, man, these times are hard

But we're gonna start by drinking our cheap bottles of wine

Shit talking up all night,

doing 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

Shit talking up all night,

saying things we haven't for a while, a while,

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 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
