I was on holiday in Europe
In the Summer of '84
It was the trip of a lifetime
There was so much to explore

A handsome Frenchman was my first love
Back when I was twenty one
Before him love eluded me
I thought I might become a nun

But the spell of love washed over me
In Vienna on that day
As we dined by candlelight
My inhibitions flew away

We travelled across to Venice
The city of love on the sea
It was there that I found love
And I lost my virginity

Our love was kept a secret
But my smile I could not hide
When the time came to depart
There were so many tears I cried

This tale is fact not fiction
And I swear it is all true
As I expose myself completely
And share my life with each of you

* * * *

I guess, like most people, your first
love is never forgotten and I am so
fortunate to have memories from some
of the most beautiful and romantic
cities in the world.If I had my
time over I wouldn't change a thing.

I am in motion
I am blue
Love is an ocean
I'm anchored in you

We can never forget our first lover. You were lucky enough to find yours in one of the most romantic cities on earth. Venice, one of my most favorite spots.

Loved this lots ... hugs, Marti
