Another song based on a real event, only the dramatic dilemma is exaggerated. Would you go back to your first love? Try Friends Reunited- many would.

I turn around and look at you, the telephone still in my hand

Darling, I’ve just heard some news, I hope you’ll understand

Don’ t know if I should tell you this, don’t know what you’re going to say

That was an old friend of mine, ......he heard from Mary yesterdayI

 

We were swapping stories from the past, catching up on friends we’d known

He said he knew they’d never last. Said now she’s living on her own

She’s moved back to her old home town, only ‘bout an hour away

He said that I should call her. ...... I didn’t know what I should say

 

I told you that, many years ago, she’d been much more than a friend

We’d had a love, no one must know, My life was full of secrets then

I see the questions in your eyes, does a first love ever really die?

And I it’s plain to see, ...... it won’t take much to make you cry

 

 

Many times you’ve asked me, “You wouldn't hurt me would you?”

And every time I’ve promised, ”That's one thing I never could do”

I won’t go back on all the things I’ve said; the past is in the past

I wont forget my first love. I’ll never leave my last

 

 

I've told you so a thousand times, I’ll tell you about a million more

That in everyone I loved before, it was you that I was looking for

Ghosts can rise up from the past, casting shadows cold and black

But when love saves the best for last, ....... there’ll be no going back
