First Love

FIRST LOVE I was hooked on first sight, the first love of my life But then I went and lost you, and it cut me like a knife A timeless moment frozen And I couldn't really see The impact of my feelings, and what you meant to me To see you with another guy was more than I could bear I longed to tell you how I felt, but I just didn't dare I was cool and pretentious, in front of all our friends Acting cool and cocky, and the message that it sends Gordon is a moron, and he's not the only one I made no attempt to rectify, the damage I had done I became the king of fools, the day I let you go Would that attempt have won you back, I guess I'll never know I once stood at a crossroads and decided I must find A way to live a new life, and leave the other one behind Though circumstances happen, and we lived our lives apart You will always occupy, a place within my heart
