Last First Love

You're my last first love

I know that's a little bit redundant

But it's a special kind of phrasing

To make it clear the point I'm raising:

That not only are you the start, you're the end

And even if we close this chapter

You'll always have your own two bookends

In my life

All your own

You're my last first love

I'm not sorry

I know it's a candle you can carry

Though I agree it can be scary

To be the light I label with this lovely tune

To be the wonderful thing

I like returning to mid-morning, sundown and noon

It's true

You're my last first love

Not to be confused

With my first last love

Of which you're not accused

So maybe it's you

And maybe it's not you

But when I get to it

I'll write a song about that too (oh)

But for now

I just love you
