These days I won't Love just anybody You set the bar too high For other acts to follow Tear myself apart When I'm feeling lonely Been too many passing Friends who never filled the hole You were my first love And you mean so much more I was a naive fool just holding Onto what I had to do And if I knew then What I think I know now I'd be coming over and telling you Over and over again You were my first love You were my first love Now it's been nine or ten years And I'm not ashamed to say That I had my fun and I've had my fill And I've thrown it all away You were only a girl I was a stupid young boy Just take me as I stand today Don't leave me on that choice You were my first love You were my first love You were my first love You were my first love And I miss you - there, I said it I miss you all the time And it's nights like These I dream a dream That you might still be mine You were my first love And you mean so much more I was a naive fool just Holding onto what I had to do And if I knew then What I think I know now I'd be coming over and telling you Over and over again You were my first love You were my first love You were my first love You were my first love
