First Dance Lyrics
Its your chance take her hand to the floor (to the floor)
And if you see something you like then let her know
But you only got one chance it your first dance
When I close my eyes I see me and you at the prom,
We've been both been waiting so long for this day
To come now that it's here lets make it special
There's so many thoughts in my mind the DJ's playing
My favorite song ain't no chaperone's this could be
The night of a dream.
If you give, give the first dance to me girl I promise
I'll be gentle but we gotta do it slowly if you give,
Give your first dance to me we'll cherish every moment,
It only happens once, once in a life time.
I couldn't ask for more we're rockin' back and forth
Under the disco ball we're the only ones on the floor
[we're here tonight], So many thoughts in my mind the DJ's playing
My favorite song how we're all alone, here's to opportunity
Only if you give,
Give the first dance to me girl I promise i'll be gentle
But we gotta do it slowly if you give, give the first dance
To me we'll cherish every moment, it only happens once, once
In a life time.
Everybody says that we look cute together lets make this a night
The two us remember, no teachers around to see us dancin' close
I'm tellin' you our parents will never know before the lights
Up and the music turns off now's the perfect time for me to taste
Your lipgloss, your glass slippers in my hand right here, we'll
Make it before the clock strikes nine.
If you give, give the first dance to me girl I promise
I'll be gentle but we gotta do it slowly if you give,
Give the first dance to me we'll cherish every moment,
It only happens once, once in a life time
If you give, give the first dance to me im gon cherish
Every moment cause it only happens once, once in a life
Time.
And if you see something you like then let her know
But you only got one chance it your first dance
We've been both been waiting so long for this day
To come now that it's here lets make it special
There's so many thoughts in my mind the DJ's playing
My favorite song ain't no chaperone's this could be
The night of a dream.
I'll be gentle but we gotta do it slowly if you give,
Give your first dance to me we'll cherish every moment,
It only happens once, once in a life time.

My favorite song how we're all alone, here's to opportunity

I love how any girl who is about to, or going to prom can relate to this song!
this song is NOT about their first dance.
it's about their first "somethin else"
i agree, it doesnt sound right cause he sounds like a little kid.

Way to ruin a perfectly sweet song. It's about his first kiss, that happened at a school dance. So thanks for pretty much being a pervert, and ruining this song.

And he's 15 by the way, not 7.

Justin Bieber, you are talking about sex.
yeah this sounds alot like a metaphor for taking someones virginity. so what hes 16. thats when alot of people loose it nowadays. and why whould you write a song making such a big deal with dancing with a girl? im pretty sure hes danced with many girls before.
omg he's rightin about havin his first dance wiv his girlfriend and he's really been lookin forward to it. so why do you have to assume that he's talkin about sex and he's 15 most 15 year old boys have actually done it
it's about sex! dancing is a metaphor for sex in the song.

he says they've been waiting for so long and they want it to be special. they're finally alone without a chaperone.

he says he'll be gentle with her and they'll do it slowly, and that your first time only happens once.

There's no parents around to know they did "it."
It's about his first kiss! And by saying "he'll be gentle" he's saying he's not going to shove his tongue down her throat, or be aggressive. Really, what's up with people's minds these days? Get it right.

forreal...people actually listen to this shit, get some musical taste and listen to something that is actually meaningly( for example minus the bear or open hand)
well, I really love this song. at first, I thought it's about first dance on the prom etc, but when I listened it carefully I relized that it's (probably) about loosing virginity. ''Girl, I promise I'll be gentle, I know we gotta do it slowly'' ''It happens once, once in lifetime'' Now I think it really is about the first sex. lol btw sorry about my english, It's not my mother tounge..
he's talking about a special moment that he had with a girl
if u hate justin bieber why are you looking him up?unless u secretly like him.he's just a kid.GET A LIFE!!
Sounds like a double meaning for a song. The lyrics clearly state they are going to prom, and most people assume prom is where people lose their virginity -- American Pie movies, etc -- because they are going to college soon, and want to "experience things." Could be special moments, too, but I believe it's about losing your virginity with a person you held close.
