You only call me when you're all alone
I don't know why I pick up the phone
I guess I'm lonely and you are too
This is the last thing I wanna go through
I wanna go through through
I wanna go through through oh oh

It's a mystery it's a mystery why you ever left

I don't know why I don't know why I am second best

All that I wanted was a second chance
So I can convince you to take me back
I guess you're gone now far away from home
I'm just stuck here confused and alone
Lone confused and alone lo-oh-one

It's a mystery it's a mystery why you ever left

I don't know why I don't know why I am second best

It's a mystery it's a mystery why you ever left

I don't know why I don't know why I am second best

All of the things I never said run through my head
Run through my head run through my head
Run through my head run through my head
Run through my head run through my head
Run through my head run through my head

It's a mystery it's a mystery why you ever left

I don't know why I don't know why I am second best

It's a mystery it's a mystery why you ever left

I don't know why I don't know why I am second best
