Nothing To Show Lyrics

White picket fence

Sunday mornings with a couple kids

But it's text and no calls

Sneaking out when I know I'm the cause

Can only talk when you're alone

Have a different name inside of your phone

What does she have that I don't

She can have you and I'm all alone

Second best

I have nothing left

Thought we'd build a life

Maybe one day be your wife

Oh I thought it'd be me

But everyday watch you leave

Oh I gave my all

You just watched me fall

I should have known

But I guess it's time to let go

When you're second best with nothing to show

Tell myself that I'll be fine

It's still hard to cross the Tennessee line

It stays quiet on my drive

Cause every song puts you in my mind ooh oh

Scared to check my phone and see a missed call

If I'm being honest

Cause I know I would have you over

You'd be gone again in the morning, damn

I know better than that

Second best

I have nothing left

Thought we'd build a life

Maybe one day be your wife

Oh ooh I thought it'd be me

But everyday watch you leave

Oh I gave my all

You just watched me fall

I should've known

but I guess it's time to let go

When you're second best with nothing but

All your empty promises and could have beens

You were full of shit

I won't have no more regrets

I won't be second best

With nothing left

Yeah I'll have a life

Be somebody's wife

Won't carry the shame

Just have his last name

Oh and give my all

He'll be there to catch my fall

And he'll let me know he'll never go

Won't be second best

With nothing to show
