Gerald Levert - Second Time Around lyrics

rate me

[intro]

She was saying all the right things

She was like a fashion show

From head to toe

Something came over me

Something I couldn't see

I said that four letter word

L-o-v-e

First time shoulda been the last time

I shoulda stayed away

Being in love wasn't my thing

But uh ohlooks like another love tko

Bit off more than I can chew

I done fell in love with youyeah

Look what I done stuck my foot in

Turned aroundfell in love again

Hope love don't let me down

Second time around

Look what I done stuck my foot in

Turned aroundfell in love again

Hope love don't let me down

The second time around

Ohhope love won't let me downnono

(second time around)

Second time aroundsecond time around ohnono

I don't mind calling your baby mineyeah

And I'll pay the bills

You can spend your dough at willyeah

And it don't make sense

Cuz you know I swore off the daysyeah

But you're a rare precious jewel

And I don't mind playing the fool for you

Repeat 1

Hey look what I done look what I done

(second time around)

Stuck my foot inyeah

Look what I done done

Baby I wasn't even chasin'I was being patient

Me and my prostrationfeet solid on the groundyeah yeah

Then you came aroundcame around came around

Dealin' with the drama from my baby mama

Tryin to keep my karma

You were my only friendI had to let you in

Look what I done stuck my foot in

Repeat 1

I said I'd never love the sun no more

Cuz the pain of breakin' up just make me so

She'd never loved me quite the way you did

God sent you to me and i'mma try it again

My friends think I'm crazy

Don't want me to forget

That the first of every month

I'm just writing out checks

And checks and checks and checks

I done fell in love baby

Ad lib until fade
