Jane
This affection I feel is hard to understand
It?s not the way I planned
My world is changing
Wherever I turn
It?s his face I see
Looking back at me
And in my eyes I can't disguise
The affection I feel
Is getting the better off me

Oh for the first time it's not a dream
Oh for the first time it seems so real
That I want to remember
Every moment
That I'm there beside him
When he gently takes my hand
So here I am
Feeling things I've never felt
And all because of him
My world is changing

Tarzan
She?s turned my whole world upside down

Jane
Everything that I do
I do to catch his eye
Well and I won't deny
I stand here guilty

Tarzan
I wonder if she feels the same

BothIs this affection (as) I feel
Has gotten the better of me

So for the first time
Can this be love?
Oh for the first time
I know it's real

Jane
And with him I feel

Both
So completely
Uniquely like no other
As he gently holds me close

Jane
But wait a minute
What am I saying?

Tarzan
Ne?er thought no

Jane
I never thought
On a scale so grand

Tarzan
To be feeling

Jane
Are these emotions
Racing through me
Tell me I must
Tell me I can

Tarzan
I never felt these things

Both
I?m finding who I am
Cause for the first time

Jane
I have no doubt

Tarzan
These things she does

Both
But for the first time
I understand, try to understand
Yes for the first time
I realise
That all the things they strange/separate happened
Well they?re happening to me

Jane
Every time I'm with that man

Tarzan
Every time I'm with her

Jane
Every time I'm with

Tarzan
Could I be

Both
That man
