lyrics

So you ask – what it is like – first time

Do you think – the answer – will be – the same

Tell me – how it was – when you kissed – Was it – cloud nine

Tell me – how it was – when you missed – or had – just a bad time

What I – remember now – is how – I want it – to be

I don’t – know – who I kissed – or even – what I missed

So you ask – what it is like – to grow up

Do you think – the answer – will be – the same

Tell me – how it was – when you left – family – and home

Tell me – how it was – – were you bereft – and did you – start to roam

What I – remember now – is how – I wanted it – to be

I just – know – I felt alone – many things – to moan

So you ask – what it is like – to get a life

Do you think – the answer – will be – the same

Tell me – how it was – when you found – the one – to love

Tell me – did you feel – solid ground – you know the way – they talk of

What I wish – for you – is you knew – when it’s – there

After all – get to know – somehow – life is not – a vow

What I – remember now – is how – I want it – to be –
