Lyrics
First Love © 2003 Michael Schutzler
Sought you through all my life
Shards of hope a dreadful knife
Imagined you with all my might
My heart beat lonely in the night
You crossed my life at twenty-five
Suddenly I felt alive
CHORUS:
You were Cleopatra aching
Aphrodite lightly dancing
Morning comes misty eyed
Another flower pressed and dried
Waking in a midnight sweat
Wide eyed empty tête-à-tête
Imagined perfume on my lips
Longing ? for kiss
Brown eyes glittering icy gems
Cut me like a diamond lens
CHORUS
Your lips are full and ample red
Drums are beating in my head
With eyes cast down from your face
I?m praying for your embrace
My timid hands are shaking
My words unsure and breaking
CHORUS
Sought you through all my life
Shards of hope a dreadful knife
Imagined you with all my might
My heart beat lonely in the night
Walked in empty moonlight clear
Hoping you might soon appear
CHORUS
