The first time we met You were walking down the street A copy of "Blonde On Blonde" Under your arm The first time we met You were lost in your overcoat A face that couldn't care less "Nothing is something No one can do without" You told me but later Asked to see me again The first time we met You were taking your coffee black Oh oh oh unpleasant surprise The first time Last time we met You were locked up in some suburb A cynic lost in his critical views You told me that lately you are Taking things seriously Oh oh oh unpleasant surprise "Nothing's still something No one can do without" You told me but later asked To see me again Your friends have all settled Some even made the grade Oh oh oh unpleasant surprise Oh oh oh unpleasant surprise The first time The first time Finally you got to face it The first time Finally you got to face it
