The First to Know Songtext
von Star Thistle

Well she came like summer rain, the world got bright
Blue-green with flecks of gold in the prairie light
And I said I would, oh my darling I would
I would, oh my darling I would

Warm hands now moving down her perfect back
Oh she was my prettiest heart attack
And I said I would, oh no question I would
I would, oh no question I would


She said "my thighs are bruised and sore from the jut of your hip
Your eyes and your little sigh make me bite my lip
And I would too, my darling, I would
I would too my darling, I would
And what we have is bigger than what we sought
I will not regret this time if it′s all we've got
And I would, oh I would if I could
I would, oh I would if I could"

At the airport now with a suitcase and a long slow fade
She turned around and broke down at the gate
Crying "I would, oh I wish that I could
I would, oh I wish that I could"

And if, if she doesn′t go
And if, if she doesn't go
She'll be the first to know
She′ll be the first to know

Now I′m a thousand miles from her door
Between my thoughts and words there lie ten thousand more
Not all waves break on shore
Not all waves break on shore
