lyrics

My home is here, in the background
Every now and then, you seek me out
When you do, I know that it won't last
But I savor every second
That I'm able to be near you
Holding every moment we appear to
Be something more than nothing at all

It's been the time of my life
Being the next-best thing on your mind
Although it's killing me inside
Knowing that I'm just holding up the line
Being the next-best thing on your mind

You've got my hopes running up and down
Every now and then, it wears me out
Wondering how long this game will last
Losing sleep over the chance it ends up
With me in the rear view
Along with every moment we appeared to
Be something more than nothing at all

It's been the time of my life
Being the next-best thing on your mind
Although it's killing me inside
Knowing that I'm just holding up the line
Being the next-best thing on your mind

Caught between going on my own
And living out a lie
Either way I'm alone
Torn between loneliness of the truth
And this empty, ignorant bliss with you
Bliss with you

It's been the time of my life
Being the next-best thing on your mind
Although it's killing me inside
Knowing that I'm just holding up

It's been the time of my life
(My home is here, in the background)
Being the next-best thing on your mind
(Every now and then, you seek me out)
Although it's killing me inside
(You've got my hopes running up and down)
Knowing that I'm just holding up the line
(Every now and then, it wears me out)
Being the next-best thing on your mind
On your mind
On your mind
On your mind
