Natalie Lyrics - David Crosby

First time I saw her she was still in school 

Chewin' on a pencil playin' pool 

Stayin' up all night 

And full of dreams 

I've known her family ever since we were small 

Gettin' in trouble drivin' our folks up the wall 

Wastin' time 

Yeah, but we had fun 

She was gonna ride her bike to China 

Sail away on a bottle top 

And as the years passed by 

One night I held her close to me 

That was the first time I 

Said I love you to Natalie 

Carousel was crowded so we talked for a while 

Natalie said "Baby, you know I miss your smile 

Whenever you go away from me" 

You know that time starts tickin' when a love starts to fade 

I knew something was wrong but still I thought we had it made 

The first time I said I love you to Natalie 

That was the first time I said I love you to Natalie

Now I look at her pictures and I talk to these walls 

Call out her name but she don't hear me at all 

Photos 

And she got wild and restless 

Tried everything she could take 

One night I tried to stop her 

But I was too late 

That was the last time I said I love you to Natalie 

And that was the last time I said I love you to Natalie 

That was the last time I said I love you, mmm ... 

That was the last time I said I love you, mmm ... 

That was the last time I said I love you to Natalie
