Look at the two of you dancing that way
|
Lost in the moment and each others face
|
So much in love you're alone in this place
|
Like there's nobody else in the world
|
I was enough for her not long ago
|
I was her number one
|
She told me so
|
And she still means the world to me
|
Just so you know
|
So be careful when you hold my girl
|
Time changes everything
|
Life must go on
|
And I'm not gonna stand in your way
|
|
I loved her first and I held her first
|
And a place in my heart will always be hers
|
From the first breath she breathed
|
When she first smiled at me
|
I knew the love of a father runs deep
|
And I prayed that she'd find you someday
|
But it still hard to give her away
|
I loved her first
|
|
How could that beautiful women with you
|
Be the same freckle face kid that I knew
|
The one that I read all those fairy tales to
|
And tucked into bed all those nights
|
And I knew the first time I saw you with her
|
It was only a matter of time
|
|
But I loved her first and I held her first
|
And a place in my heart will always be hers
|
From the first breath she breathed
|
When she first smiled at me
|
I knew the love of a father runs deep
|
And I prayed that she'd find you someday
|
But its still hard to give her away
|
I loved her first
|
|
From the first breath she breathed
|
When she first smiled at me
|
I knew the love of a father runs deep
|
Someday you might know what I'm going through
|
When a miracle smiles up at you
|
|
I loved her first
|
