(Though I'm only second best you're still first with me)
|
I tried to make you love me I've done everything I could
|
I thought if I tried long enough maybe someday that you would
|
But there was someone else before me and it's her you're lovin' still
|
And I know no matter what I'd do I'm only second best
|
Only second best that's all I will ever be
|
Even though I'm second best you're still first with me
|
And I'll be loving you when they fall my hand I guess
|
I love you even though I know I'm only second best
|
|
I know you've tried to love me and I'd hope you would in time
|
I know that when you're holding me it's her that's on your mind
|
Now I know you can't get over her but I love you nonless
|
But it makes no difference what I'd do I'm only second best
|
Only second best...
|
I love you even though I know I'm only second best
