First

Is that someone you used to date?
Why's she hanging around here, what's her story?
Doesn't she know that it's too late
That the party is over and the car is for me
Why don't you tell her what's been going on
'Cuz she seems to be dreamin' instead of just leaving
And if you don't have the heart to fill her in
Then just step aside and let me lay it on the line
'Cuz you're mine
And tonight you don't revolve around her
You're mine
And this time I'm gonna scream a little louder
Don't wanna be like every other girls in the world
Like every other one who wants you
'Cuz when I see you
Something inside me burns
And then I realize
I wanna come first
I wanna come first
You look at me and I just die
It's like heaven arriving in my mind
And I can't believe all this jealousy
I used to be a girl who would let a guy breathe
But you're mine
And tonight you revolve around me
You're mine
And this time, I'm gonna get a little louder
Don't wanna be like every other girls in the world
Like every other one who wants you
'Cuz when I see you
Something inside me burns
And then I realize
I wanna come first
I wanna come first
Don't wanna be like every girl
Who's tried to get you
I wanna be the one who's never sorry that she met you
I wanna come first
I wanna come first
Hey! Don't wanna be like every other girls
Like every other one who wants you
'Cuz when I see you
Something inside me burns
And then I realize
I wanna come first
Don't wanna be like every other girl
Like every other one who wants you
'Cuz when I see you
Something inside me burns
And then I realize
I wanna come first
Every other girl in the world
Like every other one who wants you
'Cuz when I see you
Something inside me burns
And then I realize
I wanna come first
