Lyrics
[verse]
I remember when the world was just her and me
Riding bicycles down by the old oak tree
Now she's walking off with someone new today
And I'm just standing here with nothing left to say
[chorus]
There goes my first love, walking out of view
There goes my first love, taking my heart too
I'll always keep the memory close to me
Even though she's someone else's dream
[verse]
We were young and foolish, thought it'd never end
Promised one another we'd be more than friends
But seasons change and so do hearts, I guess
Still I can't help feeling this small ache in my chest
[chorus]
There goes my first love, walking out of view
There goes my first love, taking my heart too
I'll always keep the memory close to me
Even though she's someone else's dream
[bridge]
Sweet and bitter, that's the way it goes
Every first love teaches what the heart still doesn't know
I'll smile and wave and let her walk on by
And save my tears for later, when it's just the sky and I
[chorus]
There goes my first love, walking out of view
There goes my first love, taking my heart too
I'll always keep the memory close to me
Even though she's someone else's dream
