DOLLY PARTON - Second Best lyrics

rate me

(Dolly Parton)

(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 loving still

And I know no matter what I'd do I'm only second best.

Only second best and 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 hands 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 noneless

But it makes no difference what I'd do I'm only second best.

Only second best and 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 hands 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...
