The Second Time Around

THE SECOND TIME AROUND - Written by Carroll Bryant

You tell me that you won't leave, but I know you better than that

If love died, you wouldn't grieve, and baby, that's a matter of fact

Your promises always end up broken

Sex is a token

Words go unspoken

You tell me to trust in you, but I'm more smarter than an alley cat

I can't count on your love

I can't bank on your touch

Maybe you don't realize all that you found

You can't pretend with me anymore the second time around

You tell me that you're sorry, but I see through those beautiful eyes

If tomorrow was forever then you know you would sell me more lies

You're an endangered kind of species

Covered in feces

Nothing goes unpleased

You tell me to watch my mouth, but you're what it's all about

I can't count on your love

I can't bank on your touch 

Maybe you don't realize all that you found 

You can't pretend with me anymore the second time around 

There are no third and final chances for us to try and get it right 

Jump on the back of my Harley Davidson and baby I will take you for the ride 

Of your life

The way you took me on the first time

The way you're trying again this time 

I am onto you and the games you play with my mind 

 You tell me that you won't leave, but I know you better than that

If love died, you wouldn't grieve, and baby, that's a matter of fact

Your promises always end up broken

Sex is a token

Words go unspoken

You tell me to trust in you, but I'm more smarter than an alley cat

I can't count on your love

I can't bank on your touch 

Maybe you don't realize all that you found 

You can't pretend with me anymore the second time around
