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
