The lights are low

And we're alone

The fire's glow

It keeps us warm

As I reach out and touch your face

The moon lights up our first embrace

But please don't hesitate

Hold my hand, don't be afraid

Of the feelings in your heart

Just close your eyes, no one will mind

If we're to fall in love this first time



Don't be afraid of love

Don't be afraid of love

Don't be afraid of love



It's the first time

The first time for love

There could be so many worlds and mountains

We could climb

Together, the two of us tonight



The two of us, we're quite a pair

These lonely nights we both can share

So don't be shy, 'cause it's okay

I understand feeling that way

Hold my hand, don't be afraid

Of the feelings in your heart

Close your eyes, no one will mind

If we're to fall in love this first time

It's the first time

The first time for love

There could be so many worlds and mountains

We could climb

Together, the two of us tonight
