Woke up in the garden shed Curled up on a makeshift bed Our fingers and toes entwined Three drinks and we lost track of the time You said you would never leave Carved promises into apple trees For me But I'm ruthless I'm a fool I think I left my heart at school My first love would have saved the people My first would have parted seas My first love would have sailed to China And back again for me My first love was a fearless soldier My first love would have won hands down But he's back there with a wife and children Back in my home town We'd wander about for hours Brave winter and April showers Broke curfews and household rules I'd climb walls in a party dress for you I knew you would never leave You wore crosses and hearts upon your sleeve For me But I am ruthless I'm a fool I left you standing there at school My first love would have saved the people My first would have parted seas My first love would have sailed to China And back again for me My first love was a fearless soldier My first love would have hunted you down But he's there with a wife and children Back in my home town And he would call three times a day When there were no more words And nothing left to say But I am ruthless I'm a fool I think I lost my heart at school And my first love would have saved the people My first would have parted seas And my first love would have sailed to China And back again for me My first love had a bow and arrow My first love would have hunted you down But he's there, a forgotten stranger Back in my home town My first love I'll see you around In my home town I'll see you around My first love I'll see you around In my home town I'll see you around
