Artist: Dolly Parton Album: Touch Your Woman (1972) Title: Second Best
Lyrics Second Best(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 lovin' still
And I know no matter what I'd do
I'm only second best
Only second best
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 hand 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 nonless
But it makes no difference what I'd do
I'm only second best
Only second best
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 hand 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 |
