Once upon a time, two people loved each other
Forced to choose, for fear of messing everything up
Always been friends, it's not easy to talk about it
What if one of us starts to suspect?
We're too good to just be a memory
It's too dumb to have gotten this far just to run away
So stay with me, I have something to tell you
If only you could tell me too
It's a matter of time before the magnets attract
So say it
Say you adore me, no you first
Admit you love me to death, no you first
Say you adore me, no, you first
Admit you love me to death, no you first
Once upon a time, two hearts were searching for each other
The cat, the mouse, dancing the same dance
With others, it's always easy to talk
But when I see you in front of me, I'm staring at my feet
When you're in love you're an idiot, that's an understatement
You make me paranoid and I make you run away
Look me in the eye, I have something to tell you
If only you could feel it with your eyes
It's a matter of time before the magnets attract
So say it
Say you adore me, no you first
Admit it, you love me to death, no you first
Say you adore me, no you first
Admit you love me to death, no you first
Say you adore me
Admit you love me to death
No, no, no, you first
No, no, no, you first
Say you adore me
Admit you love me to death
No, no, no, you first
No, no, no, you first
Say you adore me, no you first
Admit you love me to death, no you first
Say you adore me, no, you first
Admit you love me to death, no you first

Did you like this lyrics translation?

Have you ever had a crush on your best friend but felt too scared to confess and ruin the friendship? Angelina perfectly captures this classic dilemma in her incredibly catchy song, "Toi D'abord" (which translates to You First). The lyrics tell the relatable story of two lifelong friends who are secretly in love. They are like magnets just waiting to pull together, playing a nervous game of cat and mouse. Even though they can talk to anyone else easily, being face to face makes them act a little silly and stare at their shoelaces!

It is a sweet and funny standoff of who will confess their true feelings. Instead of just saying "I love you," they are both stuck in a stubborn loop of saying, "Admit that you love me to death... no, you go first!" This upbeat track perfectly describes how falling in love can make us act a bit foolish. It is a super engaging and relatable anthem for anyone who has ever waited for their crush to make the very first move.
