Lyrics Tom Cochrane

Tom Cochrane

First Time Around

Saturday she was all dressed in blue

Standing at the bar at the Pick It Up Saloon

She said "We don't know big guy I know you

And that's all gonna change before the night is through"

And I knew

The first time I loved you was like the first time around

Whoa oh oh oh oh

Whoa oh oh oh oh

Had it all but I was leaving town

Never went alone she was already there

She was like the rain, I got drenched to the bone

Only love can bring me home

For I drowned

The second time I loved you was like the first time around

Whoa oh oh oh oh

Whoa oh oh oh oh

That was all such a long time ago

Some stuff grows older some stuff just grows

How things change and that's a fact

Some stuff stays like blood on the track

Whoa oh oh oh oh

Whoa oh oh oh oh

For some reason she had boulders in the head

She said "I might not been there but

I'm gonna get there anyways" and

Maura had stockings that stretched halfway up her back

From that point on I know there was no turning back

From what I found

Last time I loved you was like the first time around

Whoa oh oh oh oh

(Like the first time around)

Whoa oh oh oh oh

(Oh like the first time around)

That was all such a long time ago

Some stuff grows older some stuff just grows

(Like the first time around)

How things change and that's a fact

(Like the first time around)

Some stuff stays like blood on the track
