First time I saw you
I saw crimson, I saw dark blue
I saw the ocean we would drive to
To say our goodbyes
I saw winter, I saw new moons
I saw a heavy-hearted bridegroom
Saw the color of your bedroom
And the whites of your eyes
Don't ask me how I knew
It was the first time I saw you
First time I saw you
I saw somebody that I knew
I recognized you from our first glance
I've seen my share of counterfeits
I used to have them hang around a bit
But once you've seen yourself a genuine
There ain't no going back
Don't ask me how I knew
It was the first time I saw you
Last time I saw you
By the ocean, like we both knew
I guess that I'm supposed to
Tell you that I'm doing fine
It was the last time that I held a hand
It was the last time that I gave a damn
I don't think I'll ever understand
Why I never found the time
I saw crimson, I saw dark blue
The last time that I saw you
The last time that I saw those two
Was the first time that I saw you
