"Red Cortina" lyrics

"Red Cortina"

Factory house outside the town
Pretty name I can't remember
Christmas party seventy seven
Heart beat like an earthly tremor

(Forever and ever)
First love stays with you forever
(Forever and ever)
First love stays with you forever
(And ever and ever)
Heart beat like an earthly tremor
(Forever and ever)
First love stays with you forever
Ever

The way to school I'd try to meet you
Your father used to drop you off
You'd step out of a red cortina
You looked so pretty on those winter mornings

(Forever)
First love stays with you forever
(Forever and ever)
First love stays with you forever
(And ever and ever)
You looked so pretty on those winter mornings
(Forever and ever)
First love stays with you forever
Ever

Close your eyes for just one moment
(Sha la la la la la)
Disco at the start of summer
(Sha la la la la la)
Sun still shining through the window
(Sha la la la la la)
You were just about to blossom

(Forever and ever)
First love stays with you forever
(Forever and ever)
First love stays with you forever
(And ever and ever)
You were just about to blossom
(Forever and ever)
First love stays with you forever
Ever

Forever and ever ohh ohh
Forever and ever and ever
