Girls, I know it hurts to lose your guy
To another girl who gave him the eye
You lie awake each night trying to figure out
What is it she has that you, you haven't got
And now you think all your troubles and heartaches
Have just begun
You finally lost a guy you love to her
You think the best girl has won
Oh, but believe me, it's not that way
Please believe what I say
The best girl don't always win
Sometimes they lose for the better
The best girl don't always win
Sometimes they lose for the better
Now just because she wears diamonds and fancy clothes
He's giving her his love
When it's supposed to be yours
And all though she came along and tore your dreams apart
She's not better than you no, no
Just because she's won his heart
Now that you lost the guy you love to her
You feel just like a clown
And when your friends kid you about it
You feel like going under ground
Aw, but girl hold your head up high
Believe me it ain't no lie
The best girl don't always win
Sometimes they lose for the better
The best girl don't always win
Now sometimes no matter what you do
You still get hurt again and again
And sometimes girl you have to lose, In order to win
You try and you try to keep things together
With all of your might
But sometimes only a breakup can make things right
Because, the best girl don't always win
Sometimes they lose for the better
The best girl don't always win
Now sometimes you try and you try to keep things together
And then you lose for the better
The best girl, the best girl
They don't always win (Don't always win)
I said the best, the best girl, the best girl don't always win
