I Loved The Person I First Found
Perhaps your soul has lost its way and that's the final cost
I loved the person I first found but not the one last lost
Perhaps your smile has lost its gleam and that's the final cost
I loved the person I first found but not the one last lost
Perhaps your word has lost its bond and that's the final cost
I loved the person I first found but not the one last lost
Perhaps your eye has lost its sight and that's the final cost
I loved the person I first found but not the one last lost
Perhaps your head has lost its mind and that's the final cost
I loved the person I first found but not the one last lost
Perhaps your dance has lost its beat and that's the final cost
I loved the person I first found but not the one last lost
Perhaps your style has lost its couth and that's the final cost
I loved the person I first found but not the one last lost
Perhaps your heart has lost its grace and that's the final cost
I loved the person I first found but not the one last lost
