[Verse 1]
I can't stop thinking 'bout the night when
You tucked me in and I said
You weren't supposed to be inside
Then I let you climb right into my bed
Sixteen, we had it easier
Never wanted to leave
I guess for what it's worth
But I know that you know we got some growin' up to do

[Chorus]
But you were my first stargazing in a pickup truck
Pick me up and stay out way past curfew
You were my first slow dancin' around the kitchen
Kissin' when your mama wasn't home
And I'd do anything to live it again
But time ain't goin' back and life's still got its livin' to do
You were my first love and, baby, tonight
You'll be my first goodbye
Bye
My first goodbye
Bye

[Verse 2]
I can't stop goin' back and forth
I keep asking myself
If freedom and growing is worth being alone
But I guess it's too late now
And back then we had it easier
Never wanted to leave, I say it and it hurts
But I know that you know we can't hold on to the past
Just wish it could last
[Chorus]
'Cause you were my first stargazing in a pickup truck
Pick me up and stay out way past curfew
You were my first slow dancin' around the kitchen
Kissin' when your mama wasn't home
And I'd do anything to live it again
But time ain't goin' back and life's still got its livin' to do
You'll be my first goodbye
Bye
My first goodbye

[Bridge]
Ooh, I don't wanna say goodbye
Don't wanna leave it all behind
Ooh, I don't wanna say goodbye
Don't wanna leave, leave you behind

[Chorus]
'Cause you were my first stargazing in a pickup truck
And you were my first slow dance
And I'd do anything to live it again
But time ain't going back and life's still got its livin' to do
You were my first love and, baby, tonight

[Outro]
Ooh, you were my first love and, baby, tonight
You'll be my first goodbye
Bye
My first goodbye
Bye
My first goodbye (I don't wanna say goodbye)
Bye
My first goodbye (I don't wanna say goodbye)
Bye
My first goodbye
Bye
