Testi

Mmm… you never forget your first love.
It feels like heaven when it's there…
and like the end of the world when it's gone.
I saw you standin' by the record store,
Blue dress shimmerin', I couldn't ignore,
Heart beatin' faster than a downtown train,
Didn't know love could call my name.
We danced all night to that sweet Motown sound,
You spun me 'round 'til my feet left the ground,
The moon was smilin', the stars sang too,
Oh, I swore my life began with you.
It felt like forever, almost forever,
Like a dream that would never fade.
But forever's just a word, my baby,
When love decides to slip away.
Sunday mornin', church bells rang,
You held my hand and my soul just sang,
We whispered promises under the trees,
"Always and always," you said to me.
But summer turned cold, like the wind in June,
And laughter fell quiet all too soon,
You said you needed to find your way,
And I watched you slowly fade away.
Oh, almost forever,
You were my first, my last, my never-again.
Almost forever,
You left a scar where my heart had been.
I walked past the diner where we used to sit,
Your name in my mind, I can't forget,
Coffee's gone cold, but I still stay,
Tryin' to hold what's slipped away.
Mama said, "Son, that's how love will go,
It lifts you high, then it hurts you low,"
But how could heaven turn to rain?
How could sweet love bring such pain?
Now every song on the radio
Brings your face to mind,
Every note a little tear
I can't leave behind.
Oh, I'm still learnin'
What goodbye means,
In the echo of our teenage dreams.
I tried to move on, but my heart won't let,
It beats your name with deep regret,
And though you're gone, your shadow stays,
Dancin' with me through my yesterdays.
Now I know what love can do,
It builds you up, then breaks you in two,
First love's a fire that burns so bright,
Then leaves you cold in the dark of night.
It felt like forever, almost forever,
Like a dream that would never fade.
But forever's just a word, my baby,
When love decides to slip away.
If I see you walkin' down that street,
Would you even know my name, my sweet?
I'd smile and nod, then turn away,
Still lovin' you to this very day.
Time keeps movin', but I still find,
Your laughter playin' in my mind,
Oh, the first cut's deep, they say it's true,
And mine will always bleed for you.
Almost forever,
We were fire and gold in the rain.
Almost forever,
Now it's just me and the pain.
Mmm,
You were my always, my never again…
Almost forever,
Almost, forever.
