Lyrics

[00:10.140] Look at the two of you dancing that way
[00:14.840] Lost in the moment and each others face
[00:20.210] So much in love your alone in this place
[00:25.430] Like there's nobody else in the world
[00:31.570] I was enough for her not long ago
[00:36.020] I was her number one, she told me so
[00:41.260] And she still means the world to me
[00:44.460] Just so you know
[00:50.700] So be careful when you hold my girl
[00:52.220] Time changes everything, life must go on
[00:57.190] And I'm not gonna stand in your way
[01:01.600] But I loved her first and I held her first
[01:06.440] And a place in my heart will always be hers
[01:11.610] From the first breath she breathed
[01:14.880] When she first smiled at me
[01:17.460] I knew the love of a father runs deep
[01:22.410] And I prayed that she'd find you someday
[01:28.130] But it still hard to give her away
[01:33.220] I loved her first
[01:40.590] How could that beautiful women with you
[01:45.300] Be the same freckle face kid that I knew
[01:50.400] The one that I read all those fairy tales to
[01:57.000] And tucked into bed all those nights
[02:01.210] And I knew the first time I saw you with her
[02:07.000] It was only a matter of time
[02:11.030] But I loved her first and I held her first
[02:15.540] And a place in my heart will always be hers
[02:20.660] From the first breath she breathed
[02:23.370] When she first smiled at me
[02:26.440] I knew the love of a father runs deep
[02:32.210] And I prayed that she'd find you someday
[02:36.990] But its still hard to give her away
[02:41.890] I loved her first
[02:52.400] From the first breath she breathed
[02:54.890] When she first smiled at me
[02:57.920] I knew the love of a father runs deep
[03:03.630] Someday you might know what I'm going through
[03:08.800] When a miracle smiles up at you
[03:13.860] I loved her first
