The First Time She Left

 

The first time she left I was in pain

I’ll tell you now I thought I’d go insane

Couldn’t figure what went wrong

With a love I thought was strong

Cause I thought our love was right as rain

 

You shoulda seen that guy she left with that time

He’d broken every law; he’d done time

I told her about that

But she just left me flat

Said “bye old man, be seeing you some time”

 

To you out there, you think she’s darling too

And she can’t wait until you say I do

Those pretty eyes disguise

More than you’ll realize

She could love again after she’s through with you

 

Well the first time she left I was in pain

I’ll tell you now I thought I’d go insane

Couldn’t figure what went wrong

With a love I thought was strong

Cause I thought our love was right as rain
