The window is open, so's that door
I didn't know they did it anymore
Who knew we owned eight thousand salad plates?
For years I've roamed these empty halls
Why have a ballroom with no balls?
Finally they're opening up the gates
There'll be actual, real, live people
It'll be totally strange
But, wow, am I so ready for this change
'Cause for the first time in forever
There'll be music, there'll be light
For the first time in forever
I'll be dancing through the night
Don't know if I'm elated or gassy
But I'm somewhere in that zone
'Cause for the first time in forever
I won't be alone
I can't wait to meet everyone
What if I meet "The one"?
Tonight, imagine me, gown and all
Fetchingly draped against the wall
The picture of sophisticated grace, ooh
I suddenly see him standing there
A beautiful stranger tall and fair
I wanna stuff some chocolate in my face
But then we laugh and talk all evening
Which is totally bizarre
Nothing like the life I've led so far
For the first time in forever
There'll be magic, there'll be fun
For the first time in forever
I could be noticed by someone
And I know it is totally crazy
To dream I'd find romance
But for the first time in forever
At least I've got a chance
Don't let them in, don't let them see
Be the good girl you always have to be
Conceal, don't feel
Put on a show
Make one wrong move and everyone will know
But it's only for today
It's agony to wait
Tell the guards to open up the gate
For the first time in forever
I'm getting what I'm dreaming of
A chance to change my lonely world
A chance to find true love
I know it all ends tomorrow, so it has to be today
'Cause for the first time in forever
For the first time in forever
Nothing's in my way!
