Number 2 Songtext
von C.Nichole

Yeah, let me tell you how this story goes, uh huh, true story

This is a song about being number two
Couldn′t be number one, yeah it fell through
I was not for you and you not for me
Everything doesn't have a storybook ending

Once upon a time isn′t that how the stories go
But this is real life ain't no fairytale so
You can close the book and put it back up on the shelf
Cuz see that's what I did when I left
But now it′s years later and you′re trying to connect with me
I thought we were done with the closure what else do you need
Because I recall that you said if you ever got engaged
You wouldn't contact me, you remember that? Uh yeah, ok?

I know you′re just being nosey
Hoping you're not missing anything
But now I hope you see,
I′m not thinking about you, mind only on making moves


I want you, to go with, her and walk down that aisle
No questions, no objections, go live your new life now
You ain't missing nothing, over here, let′s make that clear
I don't care, about what you, got going I'm so sincere

This is a song about being number two
Couldn′t be number one, yeah it fell through
I was not for you and you not for me
Everything doesn′t have a storybook ending

Happily ever after ain't that how the stories end
But instead you′re saving, a different princess
I don't care if you said it out of anger, out of spite
But what you told me stuck with me that night
You said the only reason that I must still be here
Because of who′d you be in the future but let me make this clear
You had nothing, still have nothing that I want
See that's why we couldn′t be, I don't need saving

You can just admit
You were hoping you dodged a bullet
But now I hope you see, the only one who dodged anything is me


I don't need you to swing this way
Go on with her, live out all your days
It ain′t nothing for you here
Oh it′s clear
Livin', vibin′, free
I'm just doin′ me
Gone and leave me be
And I didn't care then
And I don′t care now
I'm so sincere, wow

Send me your registry
I'll send you a wedding gift
I′m being so serious
I′m not delirious
But she is though
She'll find out
Yeah ya know
