[Intro]
Now the days grow long
And your hands and tears
Are lost to the wind
Take me back, take me back
Let us walk by the shore
By the hand, by the hair
I don't care anymore
With the world at your feet
Leave footprints on my back
I'll be the first, I'll be the last
Don't want to need to go back
[Verse 1]
Chewing gum and white wine
Your cold answer's mine
I'm wasting my time
You know I hate to lose
And maybe that's why I've left you behind
I feel like I've left you behind

[Chorus]
Ain't it nice?
Second best
Ain't it good?
Second best
Ain't it nice?
Second best
Ain't it good?
Second best
Oh-oh

[Verse 2]
Oh, against the bathroom tiles
Your back goes on for miles
I'm losing my mind
Babe, you know it ain't fair

You leave me again
He's waiting downstairs
There's always somebody downstairs

[Chorus]
Ain't it nice?
Second best
Ain't it good?
Second best
Ain't it nice?
Second best
Oh, ain't it good?
Second best

[Bridge]
Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah
Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah
What do I do to be better for you?
Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah
What do I do to be better for you?
Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah
What do I do to be better for you?
(Now the days grow long)
What do I do to be better for you?
(And your hands and tears are all lost, to the wind)

[Pre-Chorus]
Take me back, take me back
Let us walk by the shore
By the hand by the hair
I don't care anymore
With the world at your feet
Leave footprints on my back
I'll be first, I'll be last
Don't want to, need to go back

[Chorus]
Ain't it nice?
Second best
Ain't it good?
Second best
Ain't it nice?
Second best
Ain't it good?
Second best
Ain't it nice?
Second best
Ain't it good?
Second best
Ain't it nice?
Second best
Ain't it good?
Second best

[Outro]
Take me back, take me back
Let us walk by the shore
By the hand by the hair
I don't care anymore
With the world at your feet
Leave footprints on my back
I'll be first, I'll be last
Don't want to, need to go back
