I so remember first girl-friend
We'd known each other since she was in Grade Ten
Together we played on our knees
Learned about the birds and bees
Lost our marbles and cher-ries

Of you, dear friend, I think and sigh
Our first French kiss, and clinging thigh to thigh
Such lovely long, brown, wavy hair
Had a springy derriére
And from there, went ev'rywhere

We had joy, we had fun
And the teasin's just begun
All our games, they were fine
Back in year of '69

What fine ta-ta, display for me
Brassiere, sheer, black lace, with a cup of C
I'd watch her strip down to her thong
Feelings fine, and rather strong
She could always ring my gong

And ooh-la-la, such fun to watch
As she would model panties with no crotch
The Fred'rick's Catalog™, we'd dare [1]
Place your order; two weeks, there:
Such exciting underwear

In the loft, on the hay,
New and diff'rent "games" we'd play
Such delights in our day
But those days have gone away

We'd employ 'bout a ton:
Ev'ry toy: enhance our fun
As a man, 'twas the dawn
But alas, those days are gone

Came out of shell with honey-bun
We found true love; I knew she was "the one"
And ev'ry day, at school bell sound
You would always come around
What such complete joy we had found

Made love so well; did she and I
I fell asleep once on her as we lie
Though it was just mid-afternoon
But so satisfied from poon
Then resting, nestling like a spoon

We had love, we had joy
Woman, man, from girl and boy
Though our lives, now: discrete [2]
But the memory is sweet!

Dear, you so were my pet
Whom I swear, I'll ne'er forget
Other loves: come and gone
But to you, I'm always drawn

Any more, couldn't take:
What nostalgia; such heart-ache
In my mind, linger long
And so dedicate this song

(We had love, we had joy)
(With each other, never coy)

[repeat; but it never fades]




[1] Loooong before Victoria shared her Secrets, there was Frederick's of Hollywood (yes, that Hollywood): at first, a mail-order-only store, shipped discreetly in plain brown wrapper. Now found in shopping malls. (Dare I say, "strip malls"?)

[2] I. e., we eventually went our separate ways.
