Second Chance - DeVotchKa

Well it was just like

You said it would be

No big secret here

There’s no mystery

In fact it was called

And we got it from both ends

Now I know they’re never

Gonna take us back again

It’s where I watched you grow

It’s where you spread your wings

I don’t have no control over these things

Oh your lips are like home

And your arms are like old friends

Now I know they’re never gonna

Take me back again

Now I’ve got nothing but love

To give all day long

I get none in return

Just the same old sad song

I’ve got no one to blame

Cause I got it all wrong

I’ve got nothing left to give you

Just love all the day long

(whistling)

Well it feels just like

It was yesterday

When you took my hand

You said «Let's just pray

That before we get old

Before we reach the bitter end

That you and I will soon enough

Be together again

So I let you go

So I cut you loose

Back into the wild

You’ve been reintroduced

Oh but I should have known

With how quick you’ve outgrown your friends

That you were never gonna

Make it back this way again

Now I’ve got nothing but love

To give all day long

I get none in return

Just the same old sad song

I’ve got no one to blame

‘Cause I got it all wrong

I’ve got nothing left to give you

Just love all the day long

(whistling)

Well it was just like

You said it would be

No big secret here

There’s no mystery

Oh your lips are like home

And your arms are like old friends

Now I know they’re never gonna

Take me back again

Now I’ve got nothing but love

To give all day long

I get none in return

Just the same old sad song

I’ve got no one to blame

‘Cause I got it all wrong

I’ve got nothing left to give you

Just love all the day long
