I used to love him,
Now I see you do.
I still miss him,
Though he never knew.

I never told him how I felt,
Or why I always looked at him, you see,
I was too shy, too quiet to tell him,
And he never seemed interested in me...

He was my dream,
My handsome prince.
When I see him with you...
Well, my heart feels minced.

I never told him that I cared,
Or that I was faithful and true.
I was too scared to fall in love,
And now he sees only you.

He says the things I wanted to hear,
To you and you alone.
I'd say I'm not jealous,
But my heart feels like stone.

I'll tell you this, girl,
Hold him...tight.
Stay true to him,
And be his ever-loving wife.

I never told him I loved him,
And I've missed out on that,
But he has you, and you alone.
My heart feels sort of sad...

He was my hero before he knew you,
He was all I ever could want.
He made me happy when I was sad,
And my heart, for him, still longs.

But you make him smile,
Which makes me glad,
If you break his heart,
I will be mad.

I love him, and he never knew it.
I guess he never will...
I will move on, and get on with my life,
But I'll never forget my first true love.
