Next Best Thing

She was the girl that I wanted to be You looked at her how you never looked at me Her curly long hair and her lips red like wine Wish that I could be her but she's one of a kind I saw the picture of her in your arms Do you still think of me when you look at the stars I wish I could warn her but she won't believe You love just enough to the next best thing If only she knew all the ways you deceive til you give all your love to the next best thing I don't blame you Look at her she's stunning But does she even know the things that you said to me How you treated your mom that one Saturday night Would make holes in the walls every time we would fight One day she'll see the real you and her broken heart And all the language you use when you tear her apart I wish I could warn her but she won't believe You love just enough til the next best thing If only she knew all the ways you deceive til you give all your love to the next best thing Thing, thing, thing, thing, thing She seems so quiet and charming and kind I hope one day she'll see through the way that you lie Maybe she'll see a side of you I never got Could it just have been me cause I'm not what you want Was I not what you want Wish that I could move on But it's hard to believe that you really love her Is she the next best thing Will she ever know how you have tried to deceive Or have you gave all your love to the next best thing
