Mama never told me there'd be days like this
It all started out with a little kiss
One thing led to another
Then I took a shot
My heart was on the line
I was working overtime
Then along came a beat
Still I don't know why

Try to remember
My heart was on the line
Try to remember
It was the very first time
Try to remember
My heart was on the line
Try to remember

Standing in the middle of a traffic jam
My heart playing bumper-pool, silly game
One thing led to another
Then I took a shot
My heart was on the line
I was working overtime
With my balls in my pocket
Will I ever be the same?

Try to remember
My heart was on the line
Try to remember
It was the very first, very first time
Try to remember
My heart was on the line, on the line
Try to remember

Mama never told me there'd be days like this
It all started out with a little kiss
I never thought I'd meet girls like you
Still I got a lot to learn
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!

Don't just hide under the cover
Even if you don't have a clue
Take your best shot
Bring it to the top
And it won't take long
Give it all you got, hey!

One thing led to another
Then I took a shot
My heart was on the line
I was workin' overtime
Then along came a beat
Knocked me off my feet

Try to remember
My heart was on the line
Try to remember
It was the very first time
Try to remember
My heart was on the line
On the line, yeah
Try to remember

Mama never told me there'd be days like this
It all started out with a little kiss
I never thought I'd meet girls like you
Still I got a lot to go and lot to love, yeah!
