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
