Sam Tsui - Next Best Thing
.
Once upon a time I would have
Moved a mountain just to know
That I was on your mind at all
They say love can make you blind
You had me wrapped around your pinky finger
Waiting for your midnight call
I was never the first pick
But you knew I d wait for you every time
But now I see that I was never gonna be your Mr. Right
Just Mr. Right next in line
.
I don t wanna be the next best thing
I ain t gonna be your safety net
Baby, if I m not the one you want
I don t wanna be the one you get
We could be a symphony, but I m always second string
So baby if you re lonely tonight
It s time to find yourself another next best thing
Another next best thing
.
See I ve been getting used to all this elevator music
That you play me while I wait on hold
Guess you re on the other line,
And though I let you take your time
This waiting game is getting old
Always looking over your shoulder
Just in case something better comes by
Still hoping for the day when I ll be
More than second place
Is just a waste of my precious time
.
I don t wanna be the next best thing
I ain t gonna be your safety net
Baby, if I m not the one you want
I don t wanna be the one you get
We could be a symphony, but I m always second string
So baby if you re lonely tonight
It s time to find yourself another next best thing
.
I could be all you need
But you treat me like I m nothing at all
So when his love falls through
Find another fool to call, oh
.
I don t wanna be the next best thing
I ain t gonna be your safety net
Baby, if I m not the one you want
I don t wanna be the one you get
The one you get
.
No, I won t be your safety net
Baby, if I m not the one you want
I don t wanna be the one you get
We could be a symphony, but I m always second string
So baby if you re lonely tonight
It s time to find yourself another next best thing
