I fell in love with you when we were only sixteen.
I never really knew if it was real or a dream.
Then you moved away before our Senior year came,
But I swore that I would love you just the same.
When we met again a few years later I found
I felt the same for you as when you left our home town,
But obligations took me and I could not remain,
But I swore that I would love you just the same.
We can never seem to find the right time
For me to be in love with you,
And there never seems to be enough time
To do the things we’d both like to do.
But even when we’re out of time,
You’ll always be my first love,
And I swear that I will love you
Just the same.
