Theme: Reminiscing the impact of your first love 

While others came and others went,   

It's you who holds the key—   

To that special place deep within;   

Where my young love will always be.

No matter how much I laughed by his side,   

Or the lively conversations we shared;

Deep down I felt there was something missing—   

An important piece that just wasn't there.

No other will ever light me up inside,

Or hold my heart the way that you do.

You’re truly the one who holds the first key;

‘Cause my heart finds you, as it always knew it would. 

So as much as I try to give myself to another,  

A piece of me will keep coming back to you.

My dearest first love, my once and forever lover—

You'll always have a special place to stay.
