I'll play second fiddle to

Your new love while it lasts

Just like all the others

I've played for in the past

Why can't

I be a leader and play your leading part

Why must

I always have to play second fiddle in your heart

Play fiddle play will there never come a day

When I won't have to play the part

Of second fiddle to your heart

Each time you find a new love

You leave me here to cry

My teardrops tell a story of a love

That just won't die

Like an early morning paper

The news you get just parts

Why must

I always have to play second fiddle in your heart

Play fiddle play

Will there never come a day

When I won't have to play the part

Of second fiddle in your heart

When I won't have to play the part

Of second fiddle in your heart
