Lyrics The First Time - Dinah Washington

You knew when we had it good
I wanted to believe you but I never could
You knew when I got it wrong
And ended up like some old tired country song
You were staring out the window
Trying to imagine someplace else to go

But you won′t find it there
You won't find it anywhere

So don′t turn off that song
Or switch it over there is nothing else on
It's a shame we're always changing our mind
Because we got it right the first time

When you surprised me with that kiss
I though I′m looking forward to looking back on this
You brought me home to meet your mother
We had it best when we only had each other

You said let′s get out of here
I don't know, let′s go anywhere

But don't turn off that song
Or switch it over there is nothing else on
It′s a shame we're always changing our mind
Because we got it right the first time

I didn′t know what to say
We shrugged our shoulders and walked away
I could never make up my mind
Whereas you got it right the first time

But don't turn off that song
Or switch it over there is nothing else on
It's a shame we′re always changing our mind
Because we got it right the first time
