The First Time I Saw You Songtext
von Joe Pug

First time I saw you
I saw crimson, I saw dark blue
Saw the ocean we would drive to
To say our goodbyes

I saw winter, I saw new moons
Saw a heavy-hearted bridegroom
Saw the color of your bedroom
In the whites of your eyes

Don′t ask me how I knew
Was the first time I saw you

The first time I saw you
I saw somebody that I knew
I recognized you
From our first glance


See I seen my share of counterfeit
I used to have mine 'round a bit
Once you′ve seen yourself ungenuine
There ain't no goin' back

Don′t ask me how I knew
Was the first time I saw you

Last time I saw you
By the ocean like we both knew
Now I guess that I′m supposed to
Tell you that I'm doin′ fine

But it was the last time that I held her hand
Was the last time that I gave a damn
I don't think I′ll ever understand
Why I never found the time

I saw crimson, I saw dark blue
Last time that I saw you
The last time that I saw those two
Was the first time I saw you
