my first love would have saved the people my first would have parted season
my first love would have sailed to china
and back again for me
my first love was a fearless soldier
my first love would have won hands down
but he’s back there with a wife and children
back in my home town
we’d wander about for hours
brave winter and april showers
broke curfews and house-hold rules
I’d climb walls in a party dress for you
I knew you would never leave
you wore crosses and hearts upon your sleeve
but I’m ruthless I’m a fool
I left you standing there at school
my first love would have saved the people
my first would have parted season
my first love would have sailed to china
and back again for me
my first love was a fearless soldier
my first love would have won hands down
he’ s there a forgotten stranger
back in my home town
and he would call three times
when there were no more words
and nothing left to say
but I’m ruthless I”m a fool
i think I lost my heart at school
my first love would have saved the people my first would have parted season my first love would have sailed to china and back again for me my first love was a fearless soldier my first love would have won hands down he’ s there a forgotten stranger back in my home town
