Meu Primeiro Amor
José Augusto
My First Love
It was at a party the other day
That I found you dancing
Childhood sweetheart
Dreams by the seaside
You looked at me suddenly
Pretended you forgot
And with an awkward smile
You introduced me to your husband
And the rest of the night you danced for real
If your eyes looked at me, they pretended not to see
In my corner I stayed between laughter and pain
Remembering my first love
To kiss me you had to
Stand on your tiptoes
I was just eight then
But I lied and said I was ten
I remember you proud
Of my long pants
We walked home from school
Without a care in the world
And the rest of the night you danced for real
If your eyes looked at me, they pretended not to see
In my corner I stayed between laughter and pain
Remembering my first love
On Saturday I had some cash
To take you to the movies
Where, scared, I held
Your little hand
Our sandcastles
Dreams lost in the air
A game of sock ball
And a soda at the bar
And the rest of the night you danced for real
If your eyes looked at me, they pretended not to see
In my corner I stayed between laughter and pain
Remembering my first love
La-ra-la-la-ra
