Next Best Thing
Once upon a time I would have
曾經幾時
Moved a mountain just to know
我會大費周章地想知道
That I was on your mind at all
我對你來說到底重不重要
They say love can make you blind
朋友說愛讓我盲目
You had me wrapped around your pinky finger
因為你把我玩弄於鼓掌之間
Waiting for your midnight call
會傻到等你半夜的一通電話
I was never the first pick
我不會是你第一個接電話的人
But you knew I'd wait for you every time
可你知道我每一次都會等著
But now I see that I was never gonna be your Mr. Right
不過現在我才明白我不可能是你的Mr. Right
Just Mr. Right next in line
只是Mr.Right備胎版
.
I don't wanna be the next best thing
我才不要當你的備胎
I ain't gonna be your safety net
才不想做你的安全網
Baby, if I'm not the one you want
親愛的,如果我不是你想要的那個人
I don't wanna be the one you get
我也不想要成為你擁有的那個人
We could be a symphony, but I'm always second string
如果我們是一首交響樂,那我大概就是那第二根弦了
So baby if you're lonely tonight
好的,小伙,所以如果你今晚很寂寞
It's time to find yourself another next best thing
那你是時候去找下一個備胎了
我沒空奉陪
Another next best thing
.
我已經差不多耳熟這串電梯音樂了
See I've been getting used to all this elevator music
每次我打電話的時候你都會為我演奏
That you play me while I wait on hold
我估計你跟其他男孩聊得停不下來
Guess you're on the other line,
雖然我會說【沒事不著急】
And though I let you take your time
但是這等貓貓的遊戲我真的受夠了
This waiting game is getting old
總是會多瞄幾眼你健壯的肩膀
Always looking over your shoulder
因為擔心其他更好的人把你搶走
Just in case something better comes by
Still hoping for the day when I'll be
一開始還想著有一天我能感化你
More than second place
現在覺得這簡直就是浪費我的寶貴時間
Is just a waste of my precious time
.
我才不要當你的備胎
I don't wanna be the next best thing
才不想做你的低保
I ain't gonna be your safety net
親愛的,如果我不是你需要的那個人
Baby, if I' m not the one you want
我也不想要做你擁有的那個人
I don't wanna be the one you get
如果我們是一首交響樂,那我大概就是那第二根弦了
We could be a symphony, but I'm always second string
好的,小伙,如果你今晚很孤單
So baby if you're lonely tonight
那你是時候去換新的一個備胎了
It's time to find yourself another next best thing
.
我可以成為你的依靠
I could be all you need
然而你當我什麼都不是
But you treat me like I'm nothing at all
所以當你們的感情墜機了
So when his love falls through
再找個傻子哭訴去吧
Find another fool to call, oh
.
我才不要當你的備胎
I don't wanna be the next best thing
才不想做你的安全網
I ain' t gonna be your safety net
親愛的,如果我不是你想要的那個人
Baby, if I'm not the one you want
我也不想要做你擁有的那個人
I don't wanna be the one you get
不想被你擁有
The one you get
.
不,才不是你的低保
No, I won't be your safety net
親愛的,如果我不是你想要的那個人
我也不想要做你擁有的那個人
Baby, if I'm not the one you want
如果我們是一首交響樂,那我大概就是那第二根弦了
I don't wanna be the one you get
好的,小伙,如果你今晚很孤獨
We could be a symphony, but I'm always second string
那就趕緊去另外找個備胎吧
So baby if you're lonely tonight
It's time to find yourself another next best thing
