Lyrics
My First True Love.
Standing here where we first met, throwing sweetgum balls into the lake
My friends said you're young, she'll forgive your mistake
But when it comes to my heart, they can't feel the one thing I'm sure of
You're not coming back, I've lost my first true love
My first true love
My piece of Heaven above
Yes, I was scared, totally unprepared
Not understanding the losses
Not realizing what the cost was
Letting go of all I had dreamed of, my first true love
We weren't quite Beauty or Beast, but my friends laughed and pointed our way
Over and over, heard them saying, no way,
My forever came unwound, your falling tears counted down our time
I felt my heart break, you were no longer mine
My first true love
My piece of Heaven above
Yes, I was scared, totally unprepared
Not understanding the losses
Not realizing what the cost was
Letting go of all I had dreamed of, my first true love.
Some nights your memory beats loud and strong
Playing in my heart like a favorite song
(repeat chorus)
A well known theme, transported with much feeling..touching..as Lekzee sayd! Vocal,instrument playing and prod. very well.
