My First Loves

Jimi said wrap me in cellophane and never mind the score

Johnny said you need to wait till the man comes around

Mark said it was the seven deadly sins and the terrible twins

David said the memories of an old man are the deeds of a young man

I said I was going to undress you standing there on the shelf all wrapped in yourself

I was your friend all we needed was a flame and something slippery when wet

You came from a far-off land dark and brown and the one I drank from too

You both made me smile we shared all our laughter all the while

We talked and danced the midnight hour the flame connected us it was our light

We stole each other’s dreams and sat a while you both became my solace

I knew you both when we were young a spell was cast we were wild and free

Ever since you’ve been my last now the light is dim the flame low enough to see

Just enough for one more kiss from both of you then its time ...

To empty the ashtray and rinse the cup

say goodnight to my cigarette and my tea

my first loves and me

we always

will be
