PHYLLIS HYMAN
"First Time Together"
(Thom Bell / Cynthia Biggs / Kenny Gamble)

Here I am waiting
Waiting for you to come over
Waiting for the doorbell to ring
Here I am looking
Looking outside my window
Waiting for you to walk down the street

Here I am cooking
Cooking your favorite dinner
All the little things you said you like
Here I am making
Making that special effort
All I want to do is make it right

It's our first time together
And I want to make a good impression on you
It's our first time together
And I want to be on my p's and q's
It's our first time together

Here I am nervous
I'm on pins and needles
Hoping that you won't be late
Here I am worrying
And it's just seven thirty
When I'm not expecting you 'til late

It's our first time together
And I want everything to be just right
It's our first time together
And I want to make sure it's a perfect night
It's our first time together
It's our first time together

Hey, now
I wanna make sure that everything's alright
I wanna make sure I've got the candle light
I wanna make sure you've got everything you need

[Saxophone solo]

It's our first time together
It's our first time together

Hey, now
I wanna make sure that everything's alright
I wanna make sure I've got the candle light
I wanna make sure you've got everything you need
Oh
I wanna make sure that everything's alright
I wanna make sure I've got the candle light
I wanna make sure you've got everything you need
It's our first time together
And I want to make a good impression on you
It's our first time together
And I want to be on my p's and q's
It's our first time together
