First Love

Father Tiger


I was in love
I was elated
And devastated
All at once

It was full on
And complicated
Just the way it's
Supposed to be
With first love

I was a fool
Just like old poets
Writing sonnets
In the snow

It was a mess
Melodramatic
And there you have it
First love

Then I grew up and realized
That although first love never dies
There comes a point you wonder why
Like oh my God
I can't believe I fell so hard
All for what I wear these scars?
But I guess it was worth the while
Cause I had a first love

I was in love
I was elated
And devestated
All at once

It was full on
And complicated
Just the way it's supposed to be
With first love
First love

I was in love
I was elated
First love
