Amanda Marshall - Colleen Lyrics
colleen (i saw him first)-amanda marshallLet me tell you about colleen / my best friend since i was threeShe always had a taste for dangerous things / her scandalous tongue was extremeI was always the one left holding the bag / smiling and covering her tracksBest friends, they always do that / she was the first one to smoke a cigaretteShe once let me watch her make love / it was the kind of balance made by kingsShe took it all, but left me some / i guess i always thought that she'd have myBackBut it didn't work out like that / the moment i laid eyes on jackChorusIt was my time it was my space / it was the bright red he brought to my faceEvery underdog has their day / sorry it hurts / but colleen, i saw him firstIt all happened on a thursday / he backed his car right into mine"there are no accidents", my mother told me once / my heart agreed with herThis timeColleen jumped out of the car, screaming / "what have you done?!Jack offered apologies / i just got weak in the kneesChorusIt was my time it was my space / it was the bright red he brought to my faceEvery underdog has their day / sorry it hurts / but colleen, i saw him firstThe minute that you're in it / you know there's no turning backLike me and my jack / a funny thingTo feel the weight of the pendulum swing / when it starts to swingColleen, armed with charm and body / still couldn't take my manLast i heard, she was in rehab / i guess that scale got outta handCovered from head to toe in coloured tattoos / searching for higher views /Hungry for i love you'sChorusIt was my time it was my space / it was the bright red he brought to my faceEvery underdog has their day / sorry it hurts / but colleen, i saw him firstColleen, i saw him first
