Lyrics
Second String
Music and Lyrics by
Stacy Allyn Baker
(verse 1)
I could fall
And fall all the way
If you asked me to, I would
But after all
What more can we say
There?s been too much bad to make this whole thing good
(chorus)
I can?t be
Second string
Second best
To the one that you love
Cause with me
Second string
Is never enough
(verse 2)
And I know more
Than I ever knew
I have seen through your disguise
And I am sure
Of what I have to do
So I?ll take my bows and I?ll say my goodbyes
(chorus)
I can?t be
Second string
Second best
To the one that you love
Cause with me
Second string
Is never enough
(bridge)
Enough, I?ve had enough
Of sitting on the bench for you
And I don?t win the ribbons
Just the blue
What can I do
You know I can?t stay
If I can?t play
(chorus)
And I can?t be
Second string
Second best
To the one that you love
Cause with me
Second string
Is never enough
Cause with me
Second string
Is never enough
