[Verse 1]
My warped and worried mind resorts
To wandering off to ponder things I never talk about
A pretty girl I used to know
But wouldn't know if we met face to face

And defying every logic known
I wish the time machine could take me back again
To the wonder of my first love, the old folks teased me 'bout
Referring to her only as my little friend

[Verse 2]
Somewhere far away and maybe not so far away
A child has grown into a woman of the world
I assume this knowing that she knew so much of life
At such a tender age

I learned from her the whispered things
The big boys at the pool hall talked about
The thrill and disappointment, fear and shame that first love brings
But oh, how I thought I loved my little friend

[Verse 3]
The fragrance of the green grass
Mingled with the scent of love and warming earth
The moonlight night I kissed and cried
And swore I'd never touch another girl
But time moved fast and I moved on
And I loved others time and time again
But with each time I thought of her
And always gave a little more
Assembled love, remembrance for my little friend

[Outro]
Oh, assembled love, remembrance for my little friend
Oh, assembled love, remembrance for my little friend
Oh, assembled love, remembrance for my little friend
