Lyrics
One of a Kind ©Joe Peters 2005 VERSE I She was my first love, we met in school Queen of the prom and the royal fool I made my move that spring, at the high school dance In my platform shoes and bell-bottom pants CHORUS I I knew right then I’d never get her off my mind She was the one, one of a kind VERSE II Summer came and school was out, we’d meet at the pool She was such a babe and now I was cool I let my hair grow out, got me some shades We were making out I had it made CHORUS II All summer long I couldn’t get her off my mind She was the one, one of a kind BRIDGE I used to dream that we would marry Buy a little home raise a family CHORUS II All summer long I couldn’t get her off my mind She was the one, one of a kind VERSE III We went back to school, later in the fall Hey, who’s that new girl down the hall I can’t believe my eyes, don’t believe my mouth First day of school, I asked her out CHORUS III I never knew how quickly I could change my mind She was the one…she was the one…she was the one, and it takes all kinds She was my first love, we met in school
