"Never look back," we said How was I to know I'd miss you so? Loneliness up ahead, emptiness behind Where do I go?
And you didn't hear all my joy through my tears All my hopes through my fears Did you now, still I miss you somehow
[Chorus:] From the bottom of my broken heart There's just a thing or two I'd like you to know You were my first love, you were my true love From the first kisses to the very last rose From the bottom of my broken heart Even though time may not find me somebody new You were my real love, I never knew love 'Til there was youuuuuuuu From the bottom of my broken heart
"Baby," I said, "please stay". Give our love a chance for one more day We could have worked things out Taking time is what my love's all about
But you put a dart Through my dreams, through my heart And I'm back where I started again Never thought it would end
[Chorus:] From the bottom of my broken heart There's just a thing or two I'd like you to know You were my first love, you were my true love From the first kisses to the very last rose From the bottom of my broken heart
You promised yourself, but to somebody else, And you made it so perfectly clear Still I wish you were here
[Chorus:] From the bottom of my broken heart There's just a thing or two I'd like you to know You were my first love, you were my true love From the first kisses to the very last rose From the bottom of my broken heart Even though time may not find me somebody new You were my real love, I never knew love 'Til there was youuuuuuuu From the bottom of my broken heart
