Lyrics Gillian Welch

Gillian Welch

My First Lover

My first lover

My first lover

He was tall and breezy with his long hair down

But he gets a little hazy when I think of him now

My first lover

My first lover

He was always talking trying to bring me down

But I was not waiting for a white wedding gown

From my first lover

I do not remember any going wrong

Just a record playing that old Steve Miller song

Quicksilver girl

Quicksilver girl

At a surfer party with the whiskey porin

And the bottle rolling I was on the floor

With my first lover

My first lover

I do not remember any fights or fits

Just shakey morning after calling it quits

With my first lover

Quicksilver girl

Quicksilver girl

Quicksilver girl, and she's free
