A                E
Will you kiss me again so I can pretend
      Dbm Dbm7        Db7
We're kissing for the first time?
Gb7                            A7
Because when we kissed for the first time
      D       E
I was distracted
  D                       A
I couldn't believe it was true
           Db                             D E
That I was truly, really, finally kissing you


[Verse 2]
         A               E
Will you hug me again so I can pretend
      Dbm Dbm7          Db7
We're embracing for the first time?
Gb7                              A7
Because when you held me for the first time
          D   E
I lost my senses
  D                       A
I couldn't believe it was real
  Db
Inside I was laughing
                            D E
And dancing like peppermint eels


[Chorus 1]
          Amaj7        Dmaj7
You are a miracle like Madeline Meech
          E7      Abdim     Gbm    E
Consoling moaning stallions on the beach
           Gb                    D6
While they choke up foam for the tide


[Verse 3]
    A                 E
May we dance again so I can pretend
      Dbm Dbm7        Db7
We're dancing for the first time?
Gb7                            A7
Because when we danced for the first time
         D   E
I was so nervous
        D                 A
I could hardly stay on my feet
   Db                               D   E
My felicity must not have been very discreet


[Verse 4]
         A                    E
Will you give me your hand so I can pretend
    Dbm Dbm7           Db7
I'm holding it for the first time?
         Gb7                A7         D   E
Let's do everything for the first time forever
       D                  A
And if forever you are my friend
     Db                       D  E
I'll never, ever feel unhappy again


[Chorus 2]
          Amaj7        Dmaj7
You are a miracle like Hanze Cercheek
            E7        Abdim
Transposing scores by Satie
Gbm    E          Gb                    D6
On the beak of an inimical red-breasted lark
