Tell me, where did my passion go /
I remember when my love was irrational /
When you were all I thought of every day and night /
I was crazy in love with you / Great delight /
Every time you spoke to me / I couldn't wait to hear /
Now every time you speak I could barely hear /
Still / I did everything required of me /
But it's been a while since I felt the fire in me /
I remember when we first met / I was messed up /
But your love changed me and I was resurrected /
I remember days when I didn't have to dress up /
I came as I was cause I knew I was accepted /
Did my love for you finally hit the ceiling /
Knowing love is one thing / But I lost the feeling /
And now I want it back /
I put down all my offerings / And now I gotta take it
Back to my first / Back, Back to my first love
Back to my first / Back, Back to my first love
Back to my first / Back, Back to my first love
Back to how it was / When I fell in love
I remember when she caught my attention /
Took me to a zone in another dimension /
She would be the only one that I would ever mention /
Sitting back / Dreaming of the beauty of our friendship /
And I felt it all shift from you /
And I swear that I thought she was a gift from you /
Soon / Only she would appeal to me /
And I guess I lost sight of what was real to me /
So distracted / The more I thought of her / The less I thought of you /
And after some time / Soon your voice was inaudible /
I knew that the truth wasn't that you stopped speaking /
But I stopped listening for you / So I knew what I had gotta do /
Feeling like the prodigal / Knowing I'm a part of you /
Giving her up was impossibly hard to do /
So for now I let it go / But who knows /
Maybe one day / But now I gotta take it
Back to my first / Back, Back to my first love
Back to my first / Back, Back to my first love
Back to my first / Back, Back to my first love
Back to how it was / When I fell in love
Stained glasses / Loud music /
Big masses / But no movement /
Nice pues / Big podiums and stages /
Grande lights / Bright floral arrangements /
How is it that the Word of God still evades us /
How is it that we go to church and yet it doesn't change us /
What happened to the church that was dangerous /
We gotta see changes /
Grand buildings / But something doesn't look right /
I'm thinking is this how the church of Acts really looked like /
Cause I'm reading how the early church took flight /
Shaking every nation as the Spirit came and shook lives /
Have we relied on programs / More than on the Spirit of Him /
Settling for less / When we should fly /
We gotta stop doing Church / And be the Church /
But we gotta seek Him first / We gotta take it
Back to our first / Back, Back to our first love
Back to our first / Back, Back to our first love
Back to our first / Back, Back to our first love
Back to how it was / When we fell in love
And to get to that place again /
I just need to come and see Your face again /
To fall so deep in your embrace again /
To be covered in your love and your grace again /
Cause when I see you / A part of me comes alive /
When I feel you / A fire in me burns inside /
There's nothing like when You touch me /
My love lives cause You first loved me /
