They were eighteen, wild and free, living without fear
Big dreams of leaving that small town,
Their future was so clear
Those summer nights
Without parking lights
spent Learning bout each other
he swore it then
N’ still swears it now
There'll never be another
You--baby
No one can compare
No how, nowhere
You Get me like no one else ever has
Yeahhhh
You Were my first real love
ohhhhhh
and I swear you'll be
my last
mmmm mmm---
Young married life sure ain't no joke
Makes ya tired n’leaves ya broke
a stack of bills already late
kids are crying, and that can’t wait
one needs a bath
the other needs fed
They're Hangin on by a thread
Holding on to each other
she swore it then
N’ still swears it now
There'll never be another
You--baby
No one can compare
No how, nowhere
You Get me like no one else ever has
Yeahhhh
You Were my first real love
ohhhhhh
and I swear you'll be
my last
mmmm
The life they created keeps them
on their toes
No matter how crazy it gets,
each hopes the other knows
You--baby
No one can compare
No how, nowhere
You Get me like no one else ever has
Yeahhhh
You Were my first real love
ohhhhhh
and I swear you'll be
my last
mmmm
they swore it then
and still swear it now
They saved the best for the last
