Second String
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Sometimes i sit and think of you
Ohh
Sometimes i know i play the fool
Sometimes i know that you are alone
Ohh
Sometimes i know you wait by the phone
Ohhh but i can't love
Any more than you can hate
And i'll always be your second string
I'm just not good enough
Good enough for you
I'm just not good enough
But then again, neither are you
Sometimes i try to shoot for the moon
Ohh
Sometimes i know i give up too soon
Sometimes i think that i can be strong
Ohh
Sometimes i try to play along
Ohh but i can't love
Any more than i can hate
And i'll always be your second string
I'm just not good enough
Good enough for you
I'm just not good enough
But then again, neither are you
