First love comes on so strong
Nearly scared me half to death
Found me hiding in a north country room
Threw up my hands and pleaded no contest
There’s a wave washing over me
Excuse me as I’m swept away
There’ll be drifting, at high and low tides
But I might drift back again someday
Last love is the one we’re thinking of
Where we make like kings and queens
Found me another north country room
Oh, save us from the endless in-betweens
And there’s a heaven watching over me
She doesn’t like what she sees
North country boy pleads no contest
Oh, take me once again if you please
