My First Lover Songtext
von Gillian Welch

My first lover
My first lover

He was tall and breezy with his long hair down
But he gets a little hazy when I think of him now

My first lover
My first lover

He was always talking, tryna bring me down
But I was not waiting for a white wedding gown
From my first lover
I do not remember any going wrong
Just a record playing that old Steve Miller song


Quicksilver girl
Quicksilver girl

At a surfer party with the whiskey pour
And the bottle rolling, I was on the floor
With my first lover

My first lover

I do not remember any fights or fits
Just a shaky morning after calling it quits
With my first lover

Quicksilver girl
Quicksilver girl
Quicksilver girl, and she′s free
