The First Time

Somebody told me they saw you with her

They even called her my name

Thinking I was that girl

She wears the same kind of makeup

And the same color hair

Well she's a wannabe me and she's

Even got it down to the clothes I wear

See you can try to replace me

And start all over again

But what you just don't understand

You had it right the first time

But you weren't satisfied

I gave you all of me

So you had no reason to think twice

You had it right the first time

But you were so blind

Cause there'll never be no better me to find

You had it right the first time

She can wear the same perfume

And she can hold your hand

Yeah she can make you smile

But not the way that I can

I hope she doesn't get used to being so attached

Cause she will never be me no so it just won't last

So you can try to up rank me

Yeah you can dream like that

But you might as well face the facts

You had it right the first time

But you weren't satisfied

I gave you all of me

So you had no reason to think twice

You had it right the first time

But you were so blind

Cause there'll never be no better me to find

You can keep searching around

Thinking that we're all the same

But I'll always be the best you found

And that's one thing that just won't change

There'll never be no better me

Oh no,

No there'll never be no better me

Oh no

You had it right the first time

But you weren't satisfied

I gave you all of me

So you had no reason to think twice

You had it right the first time

But you were so blind

Cause there'll never be no better me to find

No, there'll never be no better me to find

And now I gotta tell you there'll

Never be no better me to find

You had it right the first time
