Wish You Had Got To Me First Songtext
von Alex Dupree

This desire′s all wrong
(We knew that much all along),
But we could pretend for a while
That I didn't cry
For you deep in the night,
That you didn′t want me in your arms.

Then you undid your coat like a hallucination.
You kissed me, and it felt like a curse.
See my woman at home, it's a bad situation.
I wish you had got to me first.


Your husband was making
A movie in Spain,
And we walked hand in hand through the park.
The autumn had triggered
In you, we decided,
Fondness for a fearless remark.

And I'm beginning to see
The years wasted on misery
Like a judgment that you could have reversed.
You raise up your drink
And say it′s just one of those things.
I wish you had got to me first.

Now I′m listening above
For the whispers of love
Like one of its true believers
(But with miles left to go,
And they're starting to show).
I wish you had got to me first.
