• 13. Next Best Thing [Make It Up: 2013]

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

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
