The First Girl I Loved (2010 Remaster)

歌詞

First girl I loved, Time has come I will sing you this sad goodbye song, When I was seventeen, I used to know you. Well, I haven't seen you, now, since many is the short year, And the last time I seen you, you said you'd joined the Church of Jesus. But me, I remember your long red hair falling in our faces As I kissed you. Well, I want you to know, we just had to grow; I want you to know, I just had to go. And you're probably married now, house and car and all, And you turned into a grownup, female, stranger. And if I was lying near you now, I probably wouldn't be here at all. Well, we parted so hard; Me, rushing round Britain with a guitar, Making love to people That I didn't even like to see. Well, I would think of you. Yes, I mean in the six sad morning. And in the lonely midnight, Try to hold your face before me. Well, I want you to know, I just had to go; I want you to know, we just had to grow. And you're probably married now, kids and all, And you turned into a grownup, female, stranger. And if I was lying near you now, I'd just have to fall. Well, I never slept with you Though we must have made love a thousand times. For we were just young, didn't have no place to go, But in the wide hills and beside many a long water You have gathered flowers, and they do not smell for me. Well, I want you to know, I just had to go. I want you to know, we just had to grow. So it's goodbye first love, and I hope you're fine. Well, I have a sweet woman Maybe some day to have babies by me, she's pretty, Is a true friend of mine
