On The First Day Lyrics - Leon Russell

On the first day 

You came to me so long ago 

With empty hands and broken heart 

And I loved you from the start 

On the first day 

When your other man controlled you 

I had to look away 

Pretend I didn't see 

All the new ways 

I saw you through the eyes of a child 

The songs you sang just took my heart away 

Now I sit and think of you

I always said that I would never wed 

But we were special in this crazy world 

And love was born the day we met
