|
One time bitten, two times shy |
|
It was written there - in letters ten feet high |
|
That this woman loves - that man |
|
Even the biggest fool - could understand |
|
But then your blue eyes turned grey |
|
You spoke a lot - but had nothing to say |
|
So |
|
I won't look back |
|
I won't look back |
|
You had all of me there for the taking |
|
But men like you |
|
Can't help just breaking |
|
Down the roses |
|
And trampling - them flat |
|
One time bitten - two times shy |
|
It's true I was smitten then, and you know why |
|
You charmed me off my feet |
|
Using your beautiful smile, so bittersweet |
|
But then your blue eyes turned grey |
|
You spoke so much, but had nothing to say |
|
So |
|
I won't look back |
|
I won't look back |
|
Even though I know you really tried to love me |
|
It was not enough you simply had to shove me |
|
In a corner babe, and hey - I don't want that |
|
I gave you my best, but you blew it |
|
You threw it back at me |
|
You can't have the rest |
|
'Cos that's Private Property |
|
No I won't look back |
|
I won't look back |
|
When I think I see you in the distance |
|
I call on all of my resistance |
|
And tell myself - hey girl - don't you crack |
