1
I knew a woman it was many years ago
in the short time she was with me I grew to love her so
she was married to another she loved as much as me
had children and a home were as happy as could be
CHORUS
Every time I think of the the first woman I loved
I remember every moment and thank our god above
she was the one who helped me take my first step in life
through it all she stayed another mans wife
CHORUS
2
I often wished that I could have her for my very own
some times cry out loud if she left me alone
she`d whisper that she loved me take me in her arms
holding me tightly to shelter me from harm
CHORUS
3
those times we spent together are the happiest i had
I only remember once she ever made me sad
after only two years one day she was gone
left me wondering what i had done wrong
CHORUS
4
I missed her so very much my tears they never dried
she hadnt left me for another the woman i loved had died
things arn't always what they seem she wasnt my lover
the most wonderful person I ever knew this woman was my mother
