[Verse 1]
A different kind of love, nothing that's quite as tough
No war or storm or fuss could ever get caught between us
You make me feel so strong like nothing could go wrong
When I'm so down on luck, I'm holdin' you, but you lift me up
[Chorus]
You know I'll be there
Any time you need, just tell me when
So darling, don't you be scared
I'll fight off the monsters in your head
And then I'll wrap my arms around you
Protect you from the world
I'll be moving mountains with the power of your love
I'll be there for better and for worse
I'll always put you first
[Verse 2]
You're like the sweetest song
Our hugs forever long
I'll take you in my heart
Whatever road that I'm on
[Chorus]
You know I'll be there
Any time you need, just tell me where
So darling, don't you be scared
I'll fight off the monsters in your head
And then I'll wrap my arms around you
Protect you from the world
I'll be moving mountains with the power of your love
I'll be there for better and for worse
I'll always put you first
[Outro: Perrie, Axel]
I love you
I love you
I'll always put you first
There, mama
Can you say, "La-la-la"
La-la-la-la-la
I'll always put you first

Put You First is another song I wrote at the Weymouth writing camp, this time with Phil Plested. He’s an incredible songwriter, who’s worked with Lewis Capaldi and Niall Horan a lot. He he’s just so freaking good. I was talking about how much I adore being a mum, how much Axel means to me, how he’s...
