The Next Best Thing

[Verse 1]

I'm looking forward to another day without you

The way I see it you could never do what I do

I welcomed you with open arms

You drove the knife right through my heart

So now I'm crossing out the pain that's been tearing us apart

[Chorus]

You were out of sight, now you're out of line

Went to your head, now you're left behind

[Hook]

Let me go, can't you see?

You're just the next best thing to me

Here I go, honestly

You're just the next best thing to me

[Verse 2]

I'm packing up my things and moving on without you

As far as I can see you'll never do what I do

I'm pushing you away, living out my dreams that you tore down

Can't you swallow up your pride, admit defeat and finally drown

[Bridge]

I think you're in over your head

Choking as the water fills your lungs

Can't you see, to me you're dead

Too late now, what's said is done

[Chorus]

You were out of sight, now you're out of line

Went to your head, now you're left behind

[Hook]

Let me go, can't you see?

You're just the next best thing to me

Here I go, honestly

You're just the next best thing to me
