I knitted you a hat all blue and gold   To keep your ears warm from the Binghamton cold   It was my first one and it was too small   It didn't fit you at all but you wore it just the same      I remember the first time we danced   I remember tunneling through the snow like ants   What I don't recall is why I said   I simply can't sleep in this tiny bed with you anymore      I should tell you   That you were my first love      So it's Christmas time, it's been three years   And someone else is knitting things for your ears   As I have come to know I'll only see you   Interrupting my dreams at night      And that's alright and that's alright   And that's alright and that's alright      I should tell you   That you were my first love      And it's alright and it's alright and it's alright   And it's alright, we were seventeen again together   And it's alright, we were seventeen again together   And it's alright, we were seventeen again together      I should tell you   That you were my first love   I should tell you   That you were my first love      We were seventeen again   We were seventeen again   We were seventeen again
