Loved You First

One Direction · Take Me Home (Yearbook Edition) [2012]

Zayn:

Girl it should be me

Driving to your house

Knocking on your door

Kissing you on the mouth



Liam:

Holding on your hand

Dancing in the dark

Cos' I was the only one

Who loved you from the start



Harry:

But now when I see you with him,

It tears my world apart



Chorus:

Because

I've been waiting

All this time to finally say it

But now I see your heart's been taken

And nothing could be worse

Baby, I loved you first.

Had my chances

Could've been where he is standing

That's what hurts the most,

Girl, I came so close

But now you'll never know

Baby, I loved you first



Louis:

Girl it should be me

Calling on your phone

Saying you're the one

And that I'll never let you go



Harry:

I never understood

What love was really like

But I felt it for the first time

Looking in your eyes



Liam:

But now when I see you with him

My whole world falls apart



Chorus:

Because

I've been waiting

All this time to finally say it

But now I see your heart's been taken

And nothing could be worse

Baby, I loved you first.

Had my chances

Could've been where he is standing

That's what hurts the most,

Girl, I came so close

But now you'll never know

Baby, I loved you first



Zayn:

First touch

The first kiss

First girl who made me feel like this

Heartbreak

It's killing me

I loved you first, why can't you see?



Niall:

I've been waiting all this time to finally say it

But now I see your heart's been taken

And nothing could be worse

Baby, I loved you first.



Had my chances

Could've been where he is standing

That's what hurts the most

Girl, I came so close

But now you'll never know

Baby, I loved you first



Baby, I loved you first

Baby, I lvoed you first

Baby, I loved you first
