First love can be torture.
I've got those feelings again
         I don't know if it will ever end
Life goes on just fine and dandy
         and then I'll hear a song....
It comes rushing back and
         I'm helpless to fight it

Just as I think I've gone
         and banished your smile
I see a rose and again feel
         your lips on mine.....
Is there nothing I can do
         to get you off my mind?

My heart begins to mend
         from the torment you caused
Then I see someone who
         reminds me of you.....
It comes rushing back and
         I'm helpless to fight it.

Why does your memory
         hurt me so badly?
How come I just can't
         let you go?
Is there nothing left for
         me to defend myself?

My mind keeps saying,
         He's nothing to you.
But my heart knows you
         can't scare a hungry wolf.
It comes rushing back and
         I'm helpless to fight it.
