Second Hand

Nick Torres

I walked in and you were wearing that red dress
Said you bought it from a second-hand store
someone said it didn’t fit, it wasn’t right
someone didn’t want it anymore
I said: “Baby That’s like me and you
‘Cause once I didn’t fit and it broke my heart in two”
We got to talkin’ ’bout past heartbreak
How someone’s old is someone’s new

Chorus
Not everything fits,
everybody the same
But buying new,
is a young man’s game
I’ve been broken in
a little used, a little bruised
but ain’t nothin’ wrong with second hand
If it fits me like you

I got scars and I’m rough around the edges
A little faded and never in style
There’s a patch where my heart was mended
For a long time I just couldn’t smile
I’m glad you looked past the shiny and new
And found the borrowed and the blue
And saw the promise in this old reject
My kind of broken might be your perfect

Chorus
Not everything fits,
everybody the same
But buying new,
is a young man’s game
I’ve been broken in
a little used, a little bruised
but ain’t nothin’ wrong with second hand
If it fits me like you

Bridge
And I know
I know
I know
It’s not the way we thought it’d go
But I know
I know
I know
I never want to let you go

Chorus
Not everything fits,
everybody the same
But buying new,
is a young man’s game
I’ve been broken in
a little used, a little bruised
but ain’t nothin’ wrong with second hand
If it fits me like you
