"I Loved Her First" by Heartland
(Walt Aldridge/Elliott Park)
1st Verse
Look at the two of you dancin' that way
Lost in the moment and each other's face
So much in love, you're alone in this place
Like there's nobody else in the world
2nd Verse
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
Pre-Chorus
Time changes everything
Life must go on
And I'm not gonna stand in your way
Chorus
I loved her first
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's still hard to give her away
I loved her first
3rd Verse
How could that beautiful woman with you
Be the same freckled-face kid that I knew
The one that I read all those fairytales to
And tucked into bed all those nights
Pre-Chorus
And I knew the first time I saw you with her
It was only a matter of time
(Repeat Chorus)
Tag Chorus
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 goin' through
When a miracle smiles up at you
I loved her first
Ooh, ooh
