First Glimmer

Paul Westerberg


Do you remember me long ago
Used to wear my heart on my sleeve
I guess it still shows

We watched the sun fall down and 
I hop on my bike; still that night

You're my first glimmer of light
You were my. You was my first
Glimmer of light

And the leaves were burning up in the street
I guess they tore that bridge out
Where we used to meet
And no one can see there

You're my first glimmer of light
You were my. You was my first
glimmer of light

Wore my jacket and I wore your sweater
Underneath the bridge was an indian summer
Purple mascara, safety pins kickin' the dirt
Took off your jacket took off my sweater
And we made a wish things would never be better
Train whistle blew my wish won't come. Oh no.

You were the first glimmer of light
You was my first glimmer of light
You're my first glimmer of light
You was my first,
You was my first 

Wore my jacket and I wore your sweater
Underneath the bridge was an indian summer
Purple mascara, safety pins God did it hurt
Took off my jacket took off your sweater
And we made a wish things would never be better
Train whistle blew my wish came true.

You was my first glimmer of light
You was my first glimmer of light
You was my first glimmer of light
You was my first glimmer of light

Oh baby now
Yes you were 
Oh baby now
