no not again

once you are burned, you are twice shy, that's a lesson that i'm still trying to learn, and it's one i forget as you walk by, i'm tempted to ask you to return, and like a fool i stand and wonder, chance slips by me and the words just don't get out, no, no not again, no not again, no, no, no not again, not again, no, no, no, no no, i wander around on the sidewalk, half hoping that we will happen to meet, for maybe a drink and some small talk, maybe dinner at a little place down the street, and then i see you with another, i won't ever make the same mistake again, no, no not again no not again, no, no, no not again, oh no not again, no, no, never say you're sorry, 'cause nobody ever cares, spend some money on something funny, or go anywhere, no not again, no not again, no, no, no not again, oh no not again, no, no, no not again, no not again, no, no, not again, oh no not again, oh no not again, no, not again
