Story Behind The Song
A warm, intimate soul track about the quiet magic of an instant connection and the beginning of something new.
Song Description
First Light was inspired by that rare moment when two people meet and something quietly changes. Nothing has been promised and nothing needs to be explained yet -- there is simply a look, an attraction and the feeling of a new story beginning. The title represents that first glow of possibility, like the first light appearing before a new day.

Lyrics
[Verse]
Smoke in the air skin in gold
You looked at me and the room turned cold
Like every sound just disappeared
And all I felt was you right here
Your mouth moved slow I felt the heat
My pulse was dancing under me
One little touch one little flame
And nothing in me stayed the same
[Prechorus]
I didn't know your name
But my body called you anyway
[Chorus]
First light
You touched me like first light
Warm hands in the midnight
Running through my veins
First light
You kissed me and it felt right
Like fire in the moonlight
Calling me again
[Verse 2]
Your breath so close your hands so low
A dangerous kind of letting go
I should've stopped I should've ran
But I was falling where you stand
Your fingers traced what I became
And lit a hunger with my name
[Prechorus]
I didn't know what love could be
Until your hands were over me
[Chorus]
First light
You touched me like first light
Warm hands in the midnight
Running through my veins
First light
You kissed me and it felt right
Like fire in the moonlight
Calling me again
