The Primacy Effect
Mark de Clive-Lowe, Sy Smith
It’s the primacy effect
Our souls combine to form a future perfect
It’s the primacy effect
Destiny defined in the first moments
I remember the first smile
The first “look away”
The first hello
And then we danced the night away
Take me back to the first time
I want to remember it like it was yesterday
Take me back to the first time
That was so tender I thought that I would melt away
I remember the first call
The first official date
The first goodbye
The first time we could not wait
I remember the first denial
The first admission to myself
The first time letting go and leavin’ it on the shelf
There’s nothing like the first time
It’s the primacy effect
Our souls combine to form a future perfect
It’s the primacy effect
Destiny defined in the first moments
