Second Best

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

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

That's all I will ever be

Even though I'm second

Best you're still first with me

I still be loving you

When they fall my hand I guess

I love you even though

I know I'm only second best

I love you even though

I know I'm only second best
