First Time Ever I Saw Your Face - Johnny Cash

Last time I saw you You arrived with someone else And I was happy just to see you But I kept it to myself Last time I saw you Your hair had gotten long And the people I was sitting with Asked me what was wrong Last time I saw you We did not even talk I had gotten high And then I wished that I had not And the last time I saw you I don't know where we were It could've been a birthday But it wasn't mine or yours I don't know why it's always bleeding at the edges Why that whole night keeps on tearing at the seams I guess it might be that this is just a bunch of guesses I'm told that you left early I can't speak to that at all But if you were wearing a jacket Then it must've been the fall Did we smile at each other For a moment through the crowd? Well, even if we didn't, hell It's nice to think about Last time I saw you It was a year or more ago And I would've made a bigger deal But how was I to know? I don't remember every detail But I keep on trying to 'Cause last time I saw you Was the last time I saw you

Beggin' me to stay And then you walk away There's something that you wanted to say I was in a rush But you said you were crushed And I said I'd be back, it's okay I wish I'da hugged you tighter the last time that I saw you I wish I didn't waste precious time that night when I called you I wish I remembered to say I'd do anything for you Maybe I pushed you away because I thought that I'd bore you Listen, so close but we were so distant Wish I'da known in that instant Ignored the hints or I missed it I, killed it You'd always be in attendance No flights but always attendant Handwritten letter, you penned it Them nights we wished never ended Those rules that we wish we bended Heartbreak that we never mended Those messages we unsended Best friends we somehow unfriended Ain't care 'bout who we offended Parties they wish we attended Got drunk and laughed, it was splendid I wish I'da hugged you tighter the last time that I saw you I wish I didn't waste precious time that night when I called you I wish I remembered to say I'd do anything for you Maybe I pushed you away because I thought that I'd bore you Starlight, starbright, first star I see tonight Wish I may, I wish I might, have the wish I wish tonight Starlight, starbright, first star I see tonight Wish I may, I wish I might, have the wish I wish tonight Bombs away, bombs away Bombs away, bombs away Dream about you Dream about you Dream about you I still dream about you I wish I'da hugged you tighter the last time that I saw you I wish I didn't waste precious time that night when I called you I knew that moment I met you that I'd always adore you Maybe I pushed you away because I thought that I'd Bore you

Now as the summer fades, I let you slip away You say I'm not your type but I can make you sway It makes you burn to learn you're not the only one I'd let you be if you put down your blazing gun Now you've gone somewhere else far away I don't know if I will find you (find you) But you feel my breath on your neck Can't believe I'm right behind you (behind you) 'Cause you keep me coming back for more And I feel a little better than I did before If I never see your face again, I don't mind 'Cause we've gone much further Than I thought we'd get tonight Sometimes you move so well, it's hard not to give in I'm lost, I can't tell where you end and I begin It makes me burn to learn you're with another man I wonder if he's half the lover that I am Now you've gone somewhere else far away I don't know if I will find you (find you, find you) But you feel my breath on your neck Can't believe I'm right behind you (behind you) 'Cause you keep me coming back for more And I feel a little better than I did before If I never see your face again, I don't mind 'Cause we've gone much further Than I thought we'd get tonight Baby, baby, please believe me Find it in your heart to reach me Promise not to leave me behind Take me down but take it easy Make me think but don't deceive me Torture me by taking your time 'Cause you keep me coming back for more And I feel a little better than I did before If I never see your face again, I don't mind 'Cause we've gone much further Than I thought we'd get tonight You keep me coming back for more And I feel a little better than I did before If I never see your face again, I don't mind 'Cause we've gone much further Than I thought we'd get tonight

Oh, sometimes I go walking through fields where we walked Long ago in the sweet used to be And the flowers still grow, but they don't smell as sweet As they did when you picked them for me And when I think of you and the love we once knew How I wish we could go back in time Do you ever think back on old memories at all Or do I ever cross your mind Do you ever wake up lonely in the middle of the night Because you miss me, do you darling Oh, and do your memories ever take You back into another place in time Oh, do you ever miss the feelings And the love we shared when you were with me, do you darling I just wonder do I cross your mind Oh, how often I wish that again I could kiss Your sweet lips like I did long ago And how often I long for those two loving arms That once held me so gentle and close And when I think of you and the love we once knew How I wish we could go back in time Do you ever recall these old memories at all Or do I ever cross your mind Do you ever ...

You got a fast car I want a ticket to anywhere Maybe we make a deal Maybe together we can get somewhere Any place is better Startin' from zero, got nothing to lose Maybe we'll make something Me, myself, I got nothing to prove You got a fast car I got a plan to get us out of here I been working at the convenience store Managed to save just a little bit of money Won't have to drive too far Just across the border and into the city You and I can both get jobs Finally see what it means to be living See, my old man's got a problem He lives with the bottle, that's the way it is He says his body's too old for working His body's too young to look like his Mama went off and left him She wanted more from life than he could give I said, "somebody's got to take care of him" So I quit school and that's what I did You got a fast car Is it fast enough so we can fly away? Still gotta make a decision Leave tonight, or live and die this way So, I remember when we were driving, driving in your car Speed so fast, I felt like I was drunk City lights lay out before us And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder And I, I, had a feeling that I belonged I, I, had a feeling I could be someone, be someone, be someone You got a fast car We go cruisin', entertain ourselves You still ain't got a job So I work in a market as a checkout girl I know things will get better You'll find work and I'll get promoted We'll move out of the shelter Buy a bigger house, live in the suburbs So, I remember when we were driving, driving in your car Speed so fast, I felt like I was drunk City lights lay out before us And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder And I, I, had a feeling that I belonged I, I, had a feeling I could be someone, be someone, be someone You got a fast car I got a job that pays all our bills You stay out drinking late at the bar See more of your friends than you do of your kids I'd always hoped for better Thought maybe together you and me would find it I got no plans, I ain't going nowhere So take your fast car and keep on driving So, I remember when we were driving, driving in your car Speed so fast, I felt like I was drunk City lights lay out before us And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder And I, I, had a feeling that I belonged I, I, had a feeling I could be someone, be someone, be someone You got a fast car Is it fast enough so you can fly away? You still gotta make a decision Leave tonight, or live and die this way
