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

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 house and car and all
And you turned into a grownup female stranger
And if i was lying near you now
I wouldn't be here at all

We parted so hard
Me rushing round britain with a guitar
And making love to people
I didn't even like to see

I would think of you
And i mean in the six sad morning
And in the lonely midnight
Try to hold your face before me

I want you to know i just had to go
I want you to know we just had to grow

You're probably married now kids and all
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
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

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
I have a sweet woman
Maybe someday to bear babies by me she's pretty
Is a true friend of mine
