STRUCTURE OF SONGS
[CHORUS]
IT'S MY FIRST LOVE
WHAT I'M DREAMING OF
WHEN I GO TO BED

WHEN I LAY MY HEAD UPON MY PILLOW

DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO
MY FIRST LOVE

THINKS THAT I'M TOO YOUNG
HE DOESN'T EVEN KNOW
WISH THAT I COULD SHOW HIM WHAT I'M FEELING

'CAUSE I'M FEELING MY FIRST LOVE

[VERSE 3]
MIROR ON THE WALL
DOES HE CARE AT ALL?
WILL HE EVER NOTICE ME
COULD HE EVER FALL?

[VERSE 4]
TELL ME, TEDDY BEAR [PERSONI]
WHY LOVE IS SO UNFAIR
WILL HE EVER FIND A WAY
AND ANSWER TO MY PRAYERS?

[CHORUS]
FOR MY FIRST LOVE
WHAT I'M DREAMING OF
WHEN I GO TO BED
WHEN I LAY MY HEAD UPON MY PILLOW
DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO
MY FIRST LOVE
THINKS THAT I'M TOO YOUNG
HE DOESN'T EVEN KNOW
WISH THAT I COULD SHOW HIM WHAT I'M FEELING
'CAUSE I'M FEELING MY FIRST LOVE
