Lyrics
The first love I ever had, the first time I went mad
The first time I left home, the first time I felt alone
The first time my heart was hurt, the first thing I did wrong
If I had one wish I'd ask to relieve splendor in the grass
The first time I was ever kissed, the very first person I did miss
The first time I said goodbye, the first time I felt I'd die
The first time I felt shame, the first time I was to blame
If I had one wish I'd ask to relieve splendor in the grass
The first time I did see the wonder of the sea
The first time I did hold a baby close to me
The first I held near, the first time I felt tears
If I had one wish I'd ask to relieve splendor in the grass
Writer(s): Harry Elston, Philemon Hou
