Once burned, twice shy
I've learned, I've cried
And I'm never gonna hurt that way again
Once burned, twice shy
My heart, I'll hide
If it's ever gonna have a chance to mend
Here he comes again
He wants to talk to me
And as he walks to me
I feel so empty inside.
Oh what can I say to him
He's the one who hurts me so
Tell him that he'll have to go
I've got no more tears to cry.
Once burned, twice shy
I've learned, I've cried
And I'm never gonna hurt that way again
Once burned, twice shy
My heart, I'll hide
If it's ever gonna have a chance to mend
Someday he'll learn
Someday he'll get burned
And he'll say:
Once burned, twice shy
I've learned, I've cried
And I'm never gonna hurt that way again
Once burned, twice shy
My heart, I'll hide
If it's ever gonna have a chance to mend
Once burned, twice shy
I've learned, I've cried
And I'm never gonna hurt that way again
Once burned, twice shy
My heart, I'll hide
If it's ever gonna have a chance to mend...
