Ooh-ooh-oh
Ooh-ooh-ah

The greatest romance, lightning strike to my heart
We would slow dance, in my headlights, in the parking lot
There was no chance of ever falling apart
But you've noticed that I'm here but I'm so far

'Cause I've been running from the Sun
And I got nowhere left to hide (ooh)

Every night I close my eyes
And wish I was still in love
Trying to fight the war with my mind
It's gonna kill me to give you up
Darling, this is gonna hurt
No, I won't regret it
'Cause I loved you first
But someone will love you better

Baby, you know that you're the one in my heart
No one can beat that, I've fallen so hard
But if it helps you to let me go
Forget everything that we've been through
I'm a fool for you, there's nothing that I can do

'Cause I've been running from the Sun
And I got nowhere left to hide

Every night I close my eyes
And wish I was still in love
Trying to fight the war with my mind
It's gonna kill me to give you up
Darling, this is gonna hurt
No, I won't regret it
'Cause I loved you first
But someone will love you better

Ooh-ooh-ooh
Yeah-eah-eah ('cause I loved you first)
Yeah, yeah, yeah (but someone will love you better)
Ooh-ooh-ooh
'Cause I loved you first
But someone will love you better

Darling, this is gonna hurt
I won't regret it
'Cause I loved you first
But someone will love you better
