You Went There First and I Follow

Oh I could curse, but I won’t yo
What’d you do to me now oh
You went there first, and I follow 
You went there first, and I follow 

I wanted no attachment 
But now all I want is your act, Um!
Looking at me
Looking at me
Oh now stop looking at me
Hmmmm

Came out of nowhere
While I was thinking not available 
Just going my own way
Forgetting about baes 
And then um 

Telling me I’m so cool
Oh you think you’re so smooth
Who’s calling who, hey
Coming up all in my space

Calling me beautiful 
Oh now I’m thinking about you
Your smile is so cute
And your eyes they twinkle too

Oh I could curse, but I won’t yo
What’d you do to me now oh
You went there first, and I follow 
You went there first, and I follow

I wanted no attachment 
But now all I want is your act, Um!
Looking at me
Looking at me
Oh now stop looking at me
Hmmmm
Looking at me 
Looking at me

No don’t stop looking at me
Hmmmm
