I'll play second fiddle To your new love while it lasts Just like all the others I've played for in the past. Why can't I be a leader And play a leading part Why must I always have to play Second fiddle in your heart? Chorus: Play, fiddle play Will there never come a day When I won't have to play the part Of second fiddle in your heart? --- Instrumental --- Each time you find a new love You leave me here to cry
The teardrops tell a story Of a love that just won't die. Like an early mornin' paper The news you get just parts Why must I always have to play Second fiddle in your heart? Chorus: Play fiddle play. Will there never come a day When I won't have to play the part Of second fiddle in your heart? Chorus: Play fiddle play. Will there never come a day When I won't have to play the part Of second fiddle in your heart?...
