Late one night
Sometime in the distant past
We were talking
Amongst soft kisses
Our words slipped out
Laced with the truth

You asked me if I was ready
You said you might not be
Good enough to be my first love.
I told you that you were,
I chose you.

Even though you eventually
Tore my heart to pieces,
Ripped my innocence
Away from me, and left me
Alone and empty

You were worth it,
Because I loved you.
