Natalie

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

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
