Lyrics

I’m gonna try to replace you for a while
Don’t be surprised to see your smile your eyes
Looking back at you from beside me

I can get mad or get another one
Who didn’t do what you’ve done
This time I’ll have my mistakes to guide me

Maybe those lips shaped like yours won’t say what you said
Maybe that brand of boots you wore will stay by my bed
And I’ll forget and think it’s you at a glance
Next best thing to a second chance

I’m gonna take it slow for a while
Drive my car all Sunday style
And roll it back to the beginning

It might take more than a few
Keep telling myself it’s all not for you
Until the day I’m not pretending

Maybe those lips shaped like yours won’t say what you said
Maybe that brand of boots you wore will stay by my bed
And I’ll forget and think it’s you at a glance
Next best thing to a second chance

To finding the words in time
To reach for your hand, hold my tongue
I’m getting it right you’re not mine anymore
Now you’re gonna make someone my

Next best thing
Next best thing

Maybe those lips shaped like yours won’t say what you said
Maybe that brand of boots you wore will stay by my bed
And I’ll forget and think it’s you at a glance
Next best thing to a second chance
