Tonight's the night, velvet sky
Sparkle dress and painted eye
Saved my first kiss, sealed in glass
Thought it'd be Axel, none would pass
But he's flirting ringside with Gigi bright
Lion-tamer grin in the spotlight
I'm done jumping through his hoops
No more tightrope waiting loops
Ladies and gentlemen, hush and begin
The grand spectacle of hearts and sin
Step right up, don't blink, don't miss
The daring premiere of the First Great Kiss
Circus party blur, who will I kiss?
Trumpets flare for Operation First Kiss
Axel or Jacob, place your bets
Heart on the high wire, tangled in nets
Spotlight spins, the crowd insists
Who wins the prize of my first kiss?
Center ring, the placard flies
Round one, Jacob in my sights
Down a drink, sugar and spice
Lantern light in honeyed eyes
We spin beneath the velvet skies
Violins in waltz-time rise
He wants me whole, no disguise
Will he take my first kiss tonight?
I've made my choice
Axel cuts in, sharp command
I turn away, but he takes my hand
I try to slip, he won't relent
Suddenly upside down, circus descent
World flips like a trapeze trick
Curtain falls, too fast, too quick
Hallway hush, backstage dim
Round two, spotlight on Axel, on him
Says he'll take me home, keep me safe
Can't miss games, can't tempt fate
Used to be cheers and homework late
Shared snacks, laughter on my plate
Now it's only us when no one sees
Love behind the scenes
Circus party blur, who will I kiss?
Trumpets flare for Operation First Kiss
Axel or Jacob, place your bets
Heart on the high wire, tangled in nets
Spotlight spins, the crowd insists
Who wins the prize of my first kiss?
I tell Axel softly, "Tonight's the night"
He shrugs like it's no great fight
My heart drops through the sawdust floor
Like I'd rehearsed this scene before
First kiss crown I meant for him
Turns to paper, thin and dim
The circus fades, the trumpets hiss
Who will be the boy I kiss?
