© 1992 Atlantic Recording Corporation and WEA International Inc. New tracks produced by Duane Baron and John Purdell with Mick Jones and Lou Gramm. Engineered by Duane Baron and John Purdell. Foreigner: guitarist Mick Jones and lead vocalist Lou Gramm. Notable appearances: Mark Schulman on drums and percussion, John Purdell on keyboards and background vocals, Schuyler Deale on bass guitar, and Sheryl Crow on background vocals. Third studio compilation, this is a greatest hits collection highlighted by three new studio tracks, the first three on the track listing. The song "With Heaven On Our Side" was co-written by former Foreigner lead vocalist Johnny Edwards because it was originally created late in 1991 when Jones, Wills and Edwards had started to work on a new album, process interrupted by the return of Gramm in spring of 1992. This album was released worldwide after "The Very Best Of", not only in U.S.A.

1. "Soul Doctor"
(M. Jones / L. Gramm)

Well I woke up this morning
I took your advice
I dialed the number
And I let it ring twice, then I hung up

Now I tried to do
Everything I could
To save our love
And make it feel good, again

I can't fight it, there's nobody home
Hard hearted, and all alone
I give you love, you ain't giving it back, I can't take it

I need to see the soul doctor
Before the fever begins
You know I'm searching for the soul doctor
When love is wearing thin
Doctor soul is in

I've been kicked in the corner
I'm down in the dirt
I can't feel a thing
But I know it oughta hurt

Now you're shaking my spirit
I'm breaking my back
I'm too blind to hear it
So I over react to satisfaction, if I could get me some

I ain't talking, there's nothing to say
Misunderstanding, you're walking away
Maybe baby, it's gonna take time, time, time

I need to see the soul doctor
Before the fever begins
You know I'm searching for the soul doctor
When love is wearing thin
Doctor soul is in

I need to see the soul doctor
You know things are looking grim
I keep searching for the soul doctor
Doctor soul is in

Aaah-aaah, aaah-aaah
Aaah-aaah, aaah-aaah

The doctor's soul intention
Let it be understood
Can't pull the strings of my heart
I ain't made outta wood

Now I take what I get
To get what it takes
Need a little bit of love
Got a whole lotta heartaches

I can't fight it, there's nobody home
Hard hearted, and all alone
Maybe baby, it's gonna take time, time, time

I need to see the soul doctor
Before the fever begins
You know I'm searching for the soul doctor
When love is wearing thin
Doctor soul is in

I need to see the soul doctor
You know things are looking grim
I keep searching for the soul doctor
Doctor soul is in

(Hey, a little bit of soul) aaah-aaah, aaah-aaah
(Oh yeah) aaah-aaah, aaaaaah
(Doctor soul is in) aaah-aaah, aaah-aaah
(Heart and soul doctor) aaah-aaah, aaaaaah
(I need to see the soul doctor) aaah-aaah, aaah-aaah
(Soul doctor) aaah-aaah, aaaaaah
(Doctor soul is in) aaah-aaah, aaah-aaah
(Doctor, doctor, doctor, doctor save my soul) aaah-aaah, aaaaaah
Aaah-aaah, aaah-aaah
Aaah-aaah, aaaaaah
(Doctor soul is in)
Aaah-aaah, aaah-aaah
Aaah-aaah, aaaaaah
(Oooh)
Aaah-aaah, aaah-aaah
Aaah-aaah, aaaaaah
Aaah-aaah, aaah-aaah
Aaah-aaah, aaaaaah

2. "Prisoner Of Love"
(M. Jones / L. Gramm)

In your book of broken hearts
You had my name, now the story starts
We'll never be the same again, I know, oh-woah-oh

I'm a victim of circumstance
I'm the one that got the second chance
One chance, that's all I need, and I won't let go

Now you've got to understand, I'm ready
I won't be denied
This lonely heart
Must be satisfied

You lie waiting far across the sea
Wild horses could never stop me
The highest mountain ain't high enough
I'm coming back, gonna take you prisoner of love

Calling all dreamers, every heart broken fool
Doing what I can, but love is cruel
The highest mountain ain't high enough
I won't give up, gonna take you prisoner of love, oh-woah-oh

You took the magic of the silver screen
You've got the look, that dreams are made of
I'll do anything to make my dream come true, oh-woah-oh

Now you turn this city upside down
I comb the streets of every, lonely town
I'll never rest, I'm a man possessed, I need love from you

I know you've got it there and I want it
I won't be denied
Your lonely heart
Will be satisfied

You lie waiting far across the sea
Wild horses could never stop me
The highest mountain ain't high enough
I'm coming back, gonna take you prisoner of love

(Aaah-aaah) calling all dreamers, every heart broken fool
(Oooh-oooh) doing what I can, but love is cruel
The highest mountain ain't high enough
I won't give up, gonna take you prisoner of love

Aaah-aaah aaah-aaah-aaaaah
Aaah-aaah aaah-aaah-aaaaah
Ah-ah ah-ah ah-ah ah-ah ah-ah ah-ah ah-ah ah-ah aaaaah

Calling all dreamers, every heart broken fool
Doing what I can, but love is cruel
The highest mountain ain't high enough
I'm coming back, gonna take you prisoner of love

(Aaah-aaah) baby I'll be sailing far across the sea
(Oooh-oooh) and wild horses could never stop me
(Aaah-aaah) the highest mountain ain't high enough
(Oooh-oooh) I won't give up, gonna take you prisoner of love, oh-woah-oh

I'm coming back, gonna take you prisoner of love
I'm coming back, I'm coming back, hah
I won't give up, gonna take you prisoner of love
I'll get to your love
I'm coming back, (gonna take you prisoner of love)
Take you prisioner of love
I won't give up, I won't give up, gonna take you prisoner of love, oh-woah-oh
I'm coming back, gonna take you prisoner of love

3. "With Heaven On Our Side"
(M. Jones / L. Gramm / J. Edwards / P. Huxley / S. Schiff)

Time, our precious time
In the beginning
Your heart and mine
I thought our love
Was one of a kind
And I thought we were winning
But I was one step behind

Woah-oh
Oooh-oooh oooh-oooh-ooooooh

Words, I couldn't say
The words that would keep you
From running away
But I should've tried
Even begged you to stay
I felt the tears of an angel
Fall from Heaven that day

I know, I know, your voice keeps haunting me
Come on, come home, come on back to me
I know it ain't easy, you're a part of me
You're the wings on my heart

Can we give our love another try?
Can we keep our broken dream alive?
Now more than ever, (ooooooh) with heaven on our side, oooh ooh-ooh ooh-ooooooh
Can we give our love one more night?
I miss you angel, can we make it right?
Now and forever, (ooooooh) with heaven on our side, on our side

This tender love slipped through our hands
Two broken hearts, could not withstand it
Girl I know, what I put you through
If you need me now, I'll be there for you

And I know it ain't easy, you're still a part of me
You're the wings of my heart

Can we give our love another try?
Can we keep our broken dream alive?
Now more than ever, (ooooooh) with heaven on our side, oh-woah-ooh
Can we give our love just one more night?
Oh angel baby, shine your golden light
Now and forever, (ooooooh) I know heaven's on our side, on our side

(Give our love another try) give our love another try
Can we keep (our broken dream alive) alive?
Now more than ever, (ooooooh) with heaven (on our side) heaven on our side, on our side

Heaven on our side

4. "Juke Box Hero"
(L. Gramm / M. Jones)

Standing in the rain, with his head hung low
Couldn't get a ticket, it was a sold out show
Heard the roar of the crowd, he could picture the scene
Put his ear to the wall, then like a distant scream

He heard one guitar, just blew him away
He saw stars in his eyes, and the very next day
Bought a beat up six string, in a secondhand store
Didn't know how to play it, but he knew for sure

That one guitar, felt good in his hands
Didn't take long, to understand
Just one guitar, slung way down low
Was a one way ticket, only one way to go

So he started rockin'
Ain't never gonna stop
Gotta keep on rockin'
Someday gonna make it to the top

And be a juke box hero, got stars in his eyes
He's a juke box hero, he took one guitar
Juke box hero, stars in his eyes
Juke box hero, (stars in his eyes)
He'll come alive tonight

In a town without a name, in a heavy downpour
Thought he passed his own shadow, by the backstage door
Like a trip through the past, to that day in the rain
And that one guitar, made his whole life change

Now he needs to keep on rockin'
He just can't stop
Gotta keep on rockin'
That boy has got to stay on top

And be a juke box hero, got stars in his eyes
He's a juke box hero, got stars in his eyes
Yeah, juke box hero, stars in his eyes
With that one guitar, (stars in his eyes)
He'll come alive, come alive tonight

Woah

Yeah, he's gotta keep on rockin'
Just can't stop
Gotta keep on rockin'
That boy has got to stay on top

And be a juke box hero, got stars in his eyes
He's a juke box hero, got stars in his eyes
(Just one guitar) juke box hero, (aah aah aaah) got stars in his eyes
He's just a juke box hero, aah aah aaah
Juke box (stars) hero, (stars, stars) juke box hero, (stars, stars) he's got stars in his eyes
Stars in his eyes

5. "Hot Blooded"
(L. Gramm / M. Jones)

Well I'm hot blooded, check it and see
I got a fever of a hundred and three
Come on baby, do you do more than dance?
I'm hot blooded, I'm hot blooded

You don't have to read my mind
To know what I have in mind
Honey you oughta know
Now you move so fine
Let me lay it on the line
I wanna know what you're doin' after the show

Now it's up to you, we can make a secret rendezvous
Just me and you, I'll show you lovin' like you never knew

That's why I'm hot blooded, check it and see
I got a fever of a hundred and three
Come on baby, do you do more than dance?
I'm hot blooded, hot blooded

If it feels alright
Maybe you can stay all night
Shall I leave you my key?
But you've got to give me the sign
Come on girl, some kind of sign
Tell me, are you hot mama? You sure look that way to me

Are you old enough? Will you be ready when I call you bluff?
Is my timing right? Did you save your love for me tonight?

Yeah I'm hot blooded, check it and see
Feel the fever burning inside of me
Come on baby, do you do more than dance?
I'm hot blooded, I'm hot blooded, I'm hot

Now it's up to you, can we make a secret rendezvous?
Woah, before we do, you'll have to get away from you know who

Well I'm hot blooded, check it and see
I got a fever of a hundred and three
Come on baby, do you do more than dance?
I'm hot blooded, I'm hot blooded

Hot blooded, every night
Hot blooded, you're looking so tight
Hot blooded, now you're driving me wild
Hot blooded, I'm so hot for you child
Hot blooded, I'm a little bit high
Hot blooded, you're a little bit shy
Hot blooded, you're making me sing
Hot blooded, for your (hot blooded) sweet sweet thing
Did you hear what I said?

6. "Cold As Ice"
(M. Jones / L. Gramm)

You're as cold as ice
You're willing to sacrifice our love

You never take advice
Someday you'll pay the price, I know

I've seen it before, it happens all the time
(Oooh-oooh) You're closing the door, you leave the world behind
You're digging for gold, yet throwing away
(Aaah-aaah) A fortune in feelings, but someday you'll pay

You're as cold as ice
You're willing to sacrifice our love

You want paradise
But someday you'll pay the price, I know

I've seen it before, (oooh-oooh) it happens all the time
(Oooh-oooh) You're closing the door, you leave the world behind
You're digging for gold, (aaah-aaah) yet throwing away
(Aaah-aaah) A fortune in feelings, but someday you'll pay

Cold as ice, you know that you are
Cold, cold, as, as, ice, as cold as ice to me
Cold, cold, as, as, ice

Ooh ooh ooh, cold as, cold as

7. "Head Games"
(L. Gramm / M. Jones)

Daylight, alright
I don't know, I don't know if it's real
Been a long night and something ain't right
You won't show, you won't show how you feel

No time ever seems right
To talk about the reasons why you and I fight
It's high time to draw the line
Put an end to this game before it's too late

Head games, it's you and me baby
Head games, and I can't take it anymore
Head games, I don't wanna play the
Head games

I daydream, for hours it seems
I keep thinkin' of you, yeah, thinkin' of you
These daydreams, what do they mean?
They keep haunting me, are they warning me?

Daylight turns into night
We try and find the answer but it's nowhere in sight
It's always the same and you know who's to blame
You know what I'm sayin', still we keep on playin'

Head games, that's all I get from you
Head games, and I can't take it anymore
Head games, don't wanna play the
Head games

So near, so far away
We pass each other by 'cause we don't know what to say
It's so clear, I'm sorry to say
But if you wanna win you gotta learn how to play

Head games, always you and me, baby
Head games, 'till I can't take it anymore
Head games, instead of makin' love
Head games, oh

Head games, always you and me baby
Head games, 'till I can't take it anymore, no more
Head games, instead of makin' love, we play
Head games

Head games, in the first degree
Head games, yeah, always you and me
Head games, why do you do it baby?
Head games, you put the ruin on me babe
Head games

8. "Waiting For A Girl Like You"
(M. Jones / L. Gramm)

So long
I've been looking too hard, I've waiting too long
Sometimes I don't know what I will find
I only know it's a matter of time

When you love someone
When you love someone

It feels so right, so warm and true
I need to know if you feel it too

(Aaah-aaah) maybe I'm wrong

Yeah, waiting for a girl like you (waiting for a girl) to come into my life

Aaah-aaah

When we make love it's understood
It's more than a touch or a word we say
Only in dreams could it be this way

When you love someone
Yeah, really love someone

(Aaah-aaah) now I know it's right
(Aaah-aaah) from the moment I wake up till deep in the night
(Aaah-aaah) there's no where on earth that I'd rather be

9. "Urgent"
(M. Jones)

You're not shy, you get around
You wanna fly, don't want your feet on the ground
You stay up, you won't come down
You wanna live, you wanna move to the sound

Got fire, in your veins
Burnin' hot, but you don't feel the pain
Your desire, is insane
You can't stop, until you do it again

But sometimes I wonder as I look in your eyes
That maybe you're thinking of some other guy
But I know, yes I know, how to treat you right
That's why you call me in the middle of the night

You say it's urgent, so urgent
So-oh-oh urgent...
Just you wait and see, how urgent
My love can be, it's urgent...

You play tricks, on my mind
You're everywhere, but you're so hard to find
You're not warm, or sentimental
You're so extreme, you can be so temperamental

But I'm not looking for a love that will last
I know what I need and I need it fast
Yeah, there's one thing in common that we both share
That's a need for for each other anytime, anywhere

It gets so urgent, so urgent
You know it's, urgent
I wanna tell you it's the same for me, ooh-oooh
So-oh-oh urgent...
Just you wait and see, how urgent
Our love can be, it's urgent...

You say it's urgent
Make it fast, make it urgent
Do it quick, do it urgent
Gotta rush, make it urgent...
Want it quick
Urgent, urgent, emergency
Urgent, urgent, emergency
Urgent, urgent, urgent, urgent, emergency
Urgent, urgent, urgent, urgent, emergency
So urgent, emergency
Emer ooh-oooh, emer ooh-oooh, emer ooh-oooh
It's urgent...
So urgent

10. "Double Vision"
(L. Gramm / M. Jones)

Feeling down 'n' dirty, feeling kinda mean
I've been from one to another extreme
This time I had a good time, ain't got time to wait
I wanna stick around 'till I can't see straight

Fill my eyes with that double vision
No disguise for that double vision
Ooh, when it gets through to me, it's always new to me
My double vision gets the best of me

Never do more than I, I really need
My mind is racing, but my body's in the lead
Tonight's the night, I'm gonna push it to the limit
I live all of my years in a single minute

Fill my eyes with that double vision
No disguise for that double vision
Ooh, when it gets through to me, it's always new to me
My double vision always seems to get the best of me, the best of me, yeah-eah eah-eah-hey

Ooh-ooh (oooh) ooh-ooh, double vision
(Oooh) I need double vision
(Oooh, double vision) it takes me out of my head, takin' me out of my head
(Oooh, double vision) I get my double vision, woa-oah
(Oooh, double vision) seeing double double, double vision
(Oooh, double vision) oh-oh my my double vision
(Oooh, double vision) double vision, yeah-ah-ah eah-eah eah-eah ah

(Oooh) how, how (double vision) scathed is my vision?

11. "I Want To Know What Love Is"
(M. Jones)

I gotta take a little time
A little time to think things over
I better read between the lines
In case I need it when I'm older

Aaaah woah-ah-aah

Now this mountain I must climb
Feels like a world upon my shoulders
And through the clouds I see love shine
It keeps me warm as life grows colder

In my life there's been heartache and pain
I don't know if I can face it again
Can't stop now, I've traveled so far
To change this lonely life

I wanna know what love is
I want you to show me
I wanna feel what love is
I know you can show me

Aaaah woah-oh-ooh

I'm gonna take a little time
A little time to look around me, oooh ooh-ooh ooh-ooh oooh
I've got nowhere left to hide
It looks like love has finally found me

In my life there's been heartache and pain
I don't know if I can face it again
I can't stop now, I've traveled so far
To change this lonely life

I wanna know what love is
I want you to show me
I wanna feel what love is
I know you can show me

I wanna know what love is
I want you to show me
And I wanna feel, I want to feel what love is
And I know, I know you can show me

Let's talk about love

I wanna know what love is, the love that you feel inside
I want you to show me, I'm feeling so much love
I wanna feel what love is, no, you just cannot hide
I know you can show me, yeah, woah-oh-ooh

I wanna know what love is, let's talk about love
I want you to show me, I wanna feel it too
I wanna feel what love is, I wanna feel it too

12. "Say You Will"
(M. Jones / L. Gramm)

Say you will, say you won't
Make up your mind tonight
Say you do, say you don't
Wanna be mine

Say you will, say you won't
Make up your mind this time
Say you will, say you will
Be mine tonight

I can't sleep, I keep dreaming of losing you
I feel so alone in the night, scared to open my eyes
I'm in too deep, I'm in over my head this time
Can't get you out of my mind, no matter how hard I try

So won't you?

Say you will, say you won't
Make up your mind tonight
Say you will, say you won't
Be my guidelight

Say you will, say you won't
Make up your (aaaah-aaaah) mind this time
Say you do, say you do
You wanna be mine

I get the feeling, I've never been here before
'Cause no one I've known's ever moved me the way that you do
And I know this is the real thing, it's all I've been searching for
I put it all on the line, now I'm hoping you feel that way too

And if you do, why don't you?

Say you will, say you won't
Make up your (aaaah-aaaah) mind tonight
Say you do, say you don't
Wanna be mine

Now will you?

Say you will, you say you won't
Make up your (aaaah-aaaah) mind this time
Say you will, say you will
You'll be mine tonight

Will you tell me how much I mean to you?
Will you say you always will be true?
I need more than a "come on" sign
So won't you say you will be mine?

Now won't you?

Say you will, say you won't
Make up your (aaaah-aaaah) mind tonight
Say you will, say you will
Be my guidelight

Say you will, say you will
Make up your (aaaah-aaaah) mind this time
Say you do, say you do
You wanna be mine

Come on, come on, say you will
Make up your (aaaah-aaaah) mind tonight
Say you will, say you will
Be mine tonight

Be mine tonight
Say you will
Be mine tonight yeah
Say you will
Be mine tonight
Say you will, say you will, say you will
Be mine tonight

13. "That Was Yesterday"
(M. Jones / L. Gramm)

I, thought I knew you well
But all this time I could never tell
I, let you get away
Haunts me every night and every day

You, were the only one
The only friend that I counted on
How, could I watch you walk away
I'd give anything to have you here today

But now, I stand alone with my pride
And dream, that you're still by my side

But that was yesterday
I had the world in my hands
But it's not the end of my world
Just a slight change of plans

That was yesterday
But today life goes on
No more hiding in yesterday
'Cause yesterday's gone, ah-ah ah-ah aaaaaaaaaaaaaaah

Love, my love I gave it all
Thought I saw the light when I heard you call
Life, that we both could share
Has deserted me, left me in despair

But now, I stand alone with my pride
Fighting back the tears, I never let myself cry

But that was yesterday
Love was torn from my hands
But it's not the end of my world
Just a little hard to understand

That was yesterday
But today life goes on
You won't find me in yesterday's world
Now yesterday's gone

Good bye yesterday
Now it's over and done
Still I hope somewhere deep in your heart
Yesterday will live on, oh-oh oh-oh oooooooooooooooh

14. "I Don't Want To Live Without You"
(M. Jones)

Spurn

Aaaah

Aaaah

Aaaah

I find myself in a strange situation
And I don't know how
What seemed to be an infatuation
Is so different now

(Aaaah) I can't get by if we're not together
(Eeeeh) ooh, can't you see?
(Aaaah) girl I want you now and forever
(Eeeeh) close to me

Aaaah

I'm longing for the time
I'm longing for the day
Hoping that you will promise to be mine
And never go away

I don't want to live (without you) without you
I don't want to live (without you) without you
I could never live (without you) without you
Live without (your love) your love

Oooh ooh ooh oooh

Aaaah

(Aaaah) I ask myself but there's no explanation
(Eeeeh) for the way I feel
(Aaaah) I know I've reached the right destination
(Eeeeh) And I know it's real

I'm longing for the time
I'm longing for the day
When I'll be giving you this heart of mine
Believe me when I say

I don't want to live (without you) without you
I don't want to live (without you) without you
I could never live (without you) without you
Live without (your love) your love

No, I don't want to live (without you) without you
I don't want to live (without you) without you
I could never live (without you) without you
Live without (your love) your love

Now I don't want to live (without you) without you
I don't want to live (without you) without you
I could never be (without you) without you
Be without (your love) your love

I don't want to live (without you) without you
Live without (your love) your love

(Aaaah) Live without your love, live without your love
(Aaaah) Live without your love, you see I'm lost without your love
(Aaaah) Live without your love, ooh ooh ooh oooh, ooh ooh ooh ooh oooh
(Aaaah) (Live without your love) without your love
(Aaaah) I can't live without it
(Live without your love) I can't live without your love

15. "Rev On The Red Line"
(A. Greenwood / L. Gramm)

Two in a row, everybody knows
At the green light you rev it on the red line
Been waitin' all week, to get my wheels on the street
Get my hands on the wheel, slide down in the seat
She's wearin' new colors and runnin' pretty good
I got four hundred horses tucked under the hood
But there's no need to panic, it's under control
We're aerodynamic and ready to roll

Rev on the red line
You're on your own
Rev on the red line
Just let it go

Runnin' all night on Lake Avenue
It's a piece of cake if you know what to do
You've got to lose a few, 'til the stakes get high
When the odds are right, you just blow by
And make no mistake, there's women who just wait
For the man and machine with the best time

Rev on the red line
You're on your own
Feels like a lifetime, rev on
But soon you'll know

Wasn't long ago, I could've lost my wheels
Had to outrun the law, it was no big deal
I guess they had a grudge, they were hot on my tracks
I had to pay off the judge to get my license back
Now I need to pin those needles, got to feel that heat
Hear my motor screamin' while I'm tearin' up the street

Rev on the red line
You're on your own
(Rev on) rev on the red line
Just let it go

(Rev on) rev on, rev on
(Rev on) don't think I'll ever learn to slow down
(Rev on) you'll still be here and I'll be gone
Rev on, rev on

16. "Dirty White Boy"
(M. Jones / L. Gramm)

Hey baby if you're feelin' down
I know what's good for you all day

Are you worried what your friends see?
Will it ruin your reputation lovin' me?

'Cause I'm a dirty white boy
Yeah a dirty white boy
A dirty white boy

Don't drive no big black car
Don't like no Hollywood movie star

You want me to be true to you
You don't give a damn what I do to you

I'm just a dirty white boy
Dirty white boy, dirty white boy
Dirty white boy, dirty white boy
Dirty white boy

Well I'm a dirty white boy
Dirty white boy, dirty white boy
Dirty white boy, yeah, dirty white boy
A dirty white boy

I've been in trouble since I don't know when
I'm in trouble now and I know somehow I'll find trouble again

I'm a loner but I'm never alone
Every night I get one step closer to the danger zone

'Cause I'm a dirty white boy
Dirty white boy, yeah, dirty white boy
Dirty white boy, I'm a dirty white boy
Dirty white boy

C'mon, c'mon boy
Dirty white boy, white boy
Dirty white boy, I'm a dirty white boy
Dirty white boy

Hey I'm a dirty white boy
Dirty white boy, yeah, I'm a dirty white boy
(Dirty white boy) boy, dirty white boy, yeah

17. "Feels Like The First Time"
(M. Jones)

I would climb any mountain
Sail across a stormy sea
If that's what it takes me, baby
To show how much you mean to me

And I guess it's just the woman in you
That brings out the man in me
(Oooooh) I know I can't help myself
(Oooooh) You're all in the world to me

It feels like the first time
Feels like the very first time
It feels like the first time
It feels like the very first time

I have waited a lifetime
Spent my time so foolishly
But now that I've found you
Together we'll make history

(Oooooh) And I know it must be the woman in you
(Oooooh) That brings out the man in me
(Aaaaah) I know I can't help myself
(Aaaaah) You're all my eyes can see

And it feels like the first time, like it never I did before (ooh-ooh ooh-ooh oooh)
Feels like the first time, like we've opened up the door
Feels like the first time, like it never will again, never again

It feels like the first time, it feels like the first time
It feels like the very first time, very, very, it feels
It feels like the first time, oh it feels like the first time
It feels like the very first time

Open up the door, won't you open up the door? Yeah

Feels like the first time
And it feels like the very first time
And it feels like the first time
It feels like the very first time
And it feels like the first time
It feels like the very first time
Oh it feels, it feels like the first time
Yeah it feels like the first time
It feels like the very first time
