Lyrics
FIRST LOVE
By Randy Bishop (ASCAP), Copyright 2005
My first love, she was oh so good
She was the cutest girl, in the neighborhood
And our first kiss, well, I'll never forget
Cause it was so fine, I?m not over it yet
CHORUS:
And I said to myself
When I moved away
I'm gonna marry that girl
Back home someday
Yeah, my first love
My first love
A sweet little girl
The kind dreams are made of
BRIDGE:
She's the one that really turned me on
When I walked her home from school
You should've seen her with her pom poms on
Guess I'm still a lovesick fool for...
20 years later, tried to call her up
But she has kids of her own, and a husband and stuff
So I said to her, wanna go to the prom
She said, it's a beautiful thought, but your timing?s all wrong
CHORUS II:
Guess my first love
Is the one that got away
I should've married that girl
Like I planned to someday
