I remember when I first saw what I thought was paradise
I was taken with amazement and it never happens twice
So I kept at little distance
Didn’t get myself drawn in
If I had another wish
I know I’d wish this one again

It’s not the same
Second time around
A different game
Second time around

When I thought I needed someone I was cautious and aware
?In my memory lay the dealings of a previous affair?
Well it sure taught me a lesson
Now I’m back for heaven’s sake
?When I said once is once and only?
Well I made a big mistake
Cus I’ll be there
Second time around
Yes I will dare
Second time around
Second time around

When I look back to the time
Where I could not think for myself
I was hopeless
I was anxious
I was desperate to be someone
And now I seen all I could hope for
Then again I’ve paid the price
?If your heart enough for seconds?
It will count as no surprise

It’s not the same
Second time around
A different game
Second time around
Cus I’ll be there
Second time around
Yes I will dare
Second time around
Second time around
