My First Love - Paper Aeroplanes

Woke up in the garden shed

Curled up on a make-shift bed

Our fingers and toes intwined

Three drinks and we lost track of the time

You said you would never leave

Carved promises into apple trees

For me

But I'm ruthless I'm a fool

I think I left my heart at school

My first love would have saved the people

My first would have parted season

My first love would have sailed to china

And back again for me

My first love was a fearless soldier

My first love would have won hands down

But he's back there with a wife and children

Back in my home town

We'd wander about for hours

Brave winter and april showers

Broke curfews and house-hold rules

I'd climb walls in a party dress for you

I knew you would never leave

You wore crosses and hearts upon your sleeve

But I'm ruthless I'm a fool

I left you standing there at school

My first love would have saved the people

My first would have parted season

My first love would have sailed to china

And back again for me

My first love was a fearless soldier

My first love would have won hands down

He' s there a forgotten stranger

Back in my home town

And he would call three times

When there were no more words

And nothing left to say

But I'm ruthless I”m a fool

I think I lost my heart at school

My first love would have saved the people

My first would have parted season

My first love would have sailed to china

And back again for me

My first love was a fearless soldier

My first love would have won hands down

He' s there a forgotten stranger

Back in my home town
