Lyrics In the First Place - Eric Hutchinson

In the First Place

If you had any idea what it was gonna take
Would you have gotten started in the first place
All these commitments you’ve made
They keep on adding up
Because you got addicted from the first taste
Oh, nobody wonders
Nobody really cares
Oh, about your intentions
Until you gotten there
When you started out, you were just a blank space
You started out, you were just an ordinary face
You started out, now you’ve got to finish what you’ve done
Isn’t that why you started in the first place
Started in the first place
If you had ever believed
That you were gonna break
Would you have gotten going in the first place
All these decisions it takes
To get you through the day
With no one even noticing your heart break
Oh, are you alone yes
Are you in trouble no
Oh, people’s opinions
They tend to come and go
Oo, when you started out, you were just a blank space
You started out, you were just an ordinary face
You started out, now you’ve got to finish what you’ve done
Isn’t that why you started in the first place
Started in the first place
How do you know
When you’re finally done
If you’ve got nothing to show
How do you know
When all the people you might trust
All forget to let you know
Oh
Oo, when you started out, you were just a blank space
You started out, you were just an ordinary face
You started out, now you’ve got to finish what you’ve done
Isn’t the why you started in the first place
Started in the first place
Can you remember at the start
Can you remember trying your first shot
Can you remember wanting to be there
Can you remember wanting to be there
Do you know why you started in the first place
Do you know why you started in the first place
In the first place
Started in the first place
Started in the first place
