I Loved Him First

My world stopped for a couple minutes when I heard Regina Spektor's song entitled… "I Loved You First…"

I quickly typed-in and found the lyrics. I read it once but two lines are repeatedly playing in my mind.. "You are my sweetest downfall.. I loved you first… I loved you first.."

It made me smile again.  I remembered one chubby good-looking guy wearing khaki walking shorts and white loose shirt who was introduced to me.  Enrollment day… that I reassured myself..

I loved him first… I loved him first… [sigh]

You are my sweetest downfall
I loved you first, I loved you first
Beneath the sheets of paper lies my truth
I have to go, I have to go
Your hair was long when we first met

Samson went back to bed
Not much hair left on his head
He ate a slice of wonder bread, and went right back to bed
And history books forgot about us and the Bible didn't mention us
And the Bible didn't mention us, not even once.

You are my sweetest downfall
I loved you first, I loved you first

Beneath the stars came fallin' on our heads
But they're just old light, they're just old light
Your hair was long when we first met

Samson came to my bed
Told me that my hair was red
Told me I was beautiful, and came into my bed

Oh, I cut his hair myself one night
A pair of dull scissors in the yellow light
and he told me that I'd done alright
And kissed me till the mornin' light, the mornin' light
And he kissed me till the mornin' light

Samson went back to bed
Not much hair left on his head
Ate a slice of wonder bread and went right back to bed
Oh, we couldn't bring the columns down
Yeah, we couldn't destroy a single one
And history books forgot about us
And the Bible didn't mention us, not even once

You are my sweetest downfall

I loved you first.
