First to Know - Mystery Jets

There are people I know

They don’t seem to mind or if they do, it don’t show

But I can’t sleep at night

Unless I know it’s your talk talk time

I know I’m so paranoid

But I’ve been that way since I was a boy

Knee high, stage fright

Even if you’re alright

I’ve got to be

The first to know

The first to know

The first to know

The first to know

The first to know

I know it was a long time ago

You left on your own

You kerb crawled home

And I still kick myself now

Should have never allowed

You out of my sight

And I cross my heart and hope to die

If anything happens to you

When you’re out of my sight

Wanna be the guy who steps in the way

When you’re in harm’s way

I wanna be

The first to know

The first to know

The first to know

The first to know

The first to know

And if you want some space just squeeze my hand, girl

I understand

You don’t have to lie, we’re on the same side, girl

I don’t wanna be a ball and chain

But I’m just afraid of change

And I’m not ashamed

But if you think I wanna hold you back

You should know me better than that

I just wanna be the first the know

The first to know

The first to know

The first to know

The first to know

The first to know

The first to know

The first to know

The first to know
