My warped and worried mind resorts to

Wandering off to ponder things I never talk about

A pretty girl I used to know

But wouldn't know if we met face to face And defying every logic known

I wish all the time machine could take me back again

To the wonder of my first love, the old folks tease me 'bout

Referring to her only as my little friend Somewhere far away and maybe not so far away

The child has grown into a woman of the world

I assume this knowing that she knew

So much of life at such a tender age I learned from her the whispered things

The big boys at the pool hall talk about

The thrill and disappointment, fear and shame that first love brings

But oh, how I thought I loved my little friend The fragrance of the green grass

Mingled with the scent of love and warming Earth

The moonlight night I kissed and cried

And swore I'd never touch another girl But time moved fast and I moved on

And I loved others time and time again

But with each time I thought of her and always gave a little more

Assembled love and remembrance for my little friend Oh, assembled love and remembrance for my little friend

Oh, assembled love and remembrance for my little friend

Oh, assembled love and remembrance for my little friend
