[00:00.00]Next Best Thing - Sam Tsui
[00:02.41]
[00:18.01]Once upon a time I would have
[00:20.00]Moved a mountain just to know
[00:21.57]That I was on your mind at all
[00:24.62]They say love can make you blind
[00:26.70]You had me wrapped around your pinky finger
[00:29.27]Waiting for your midnight call
[00:32.39]I was never the first pick
[00:36.26]But you knew I'd wait for you every time
[00:40.33]But now I see that I was never gonna be your Mr Right
[00:44.64]Just Mr Right next in line
[00:46.89]
[00:47.20]I don't wanna be the next best thing
[00:50.89]I ain't gonna be your safety net
[00:54.83]Baby if I'm not the one you want
[00:58.83]I don't wanna be the one you get
[01:04.21]We could be a symphony but I'm always second string
[01:11.45]So baby if you're lonely tonight
[01:14.58]It's time to find yourself another next best thing
[01:20.27]
[01:24.55]Another next best thing
[01:27.86]
[01:34.55]See I've been getting used to all this elevator music
[01:38.18]That you play me while I wait on hold
[01:41.61]Guess you're on the other line
[01:43.61]And though I let you take your time
[01:45.99]This waiting game is getting old
[01:48.74]Always looking over your shoulder
[01:53.24]Just in case something better comes by
[01:57.50]Still hoping for the day when I'll be
[01:59.63]More than second place
[02:00.88]Is just a waste of my precious time
[02:04.01]
[02:04.25]I don't wanna be the next best thing
[02:07.76]I ain't gonna be your safety net
[02:11.50]Baby if I'm not the one you want
[02:15.70]I don't wanna be the one you get
[02:20.51]We could be a symphony but I'm always second string
[02:28.13]So baby if you're lonely tonight
[02:31.25]It's time to find yourself another next best thing
[02:37.08]
[02:37.46]I could be all you need
[02:39.34]But you treat me like I'm nothing at all
[02:42.71]So when his love falls through
[02:45.02]Find another fool to call oh
[02:50.15]
[02:50.46]I don't wanna be the next best thing
[02:53.90]I ain't gonna be your safety net
[02:57.78]Baby if I'm not the one you want
[03:01.72]I don't wanna be the one you get
[03:04.15]The one you get
[03:05.90]
[03:06.28]No I won't be your safety net
[03:09.90]
[03:13.22]Baby if I'm not the one you want
[03:17.04]I don't wanna be the one you get
[03:22.35]We could be a symphony but I'm always second string
[03:29.60]So baby if you're lonely tonight
[03:32.60]It's time to find yourself another next best thing
