Lyrics

A child in a curious phase A man with sullen ways Oh, I know very well how I got my name
You think you were my first love You think you were my first love but you're wrong You were the only one who's come and gone
When thirteen years old Who dyed his hair gold? Oh, I know very well, I don't need to be told
You think you were my first love You think you were my first love but you're wrong You were the only one who's come and gone You were the only one who's come and gone
