about

Inspired by the traditional Gaelic folk forms this simple but poignant song talks about the loss of a first love but the promise of a last. A message and experience that we all at some point have been through and the simplicity of the musical setting adds to the clear message of the song that we often need to let something go so that new things can grow.

lyrics

There was a time we both were one
But now our love has passed
His soul was old his heart was young
My first love not my last

The wind does blow my love we both must go
For the clouds are overcast
I am not the girl you used to know
My first love not my last

For now I’m growing older
and my life is not carefree
For now my heart is colder
Coz my first love’s lost to me

Go find her now my love go find her soon
Before the night has passed
And know that I am loving you
My first love not my last

For I am growing older
and my life is not carefree
For now my heart is colder
Coz my first love’s lost to me

The tears did fall my love now let them rest
That is all I’ve left to ask
Please know I always tried my best
My first love not my last
