One time bitten, two times shy
|
It was written there - in letters ten feet high
|
That this woman loves - that man
|
Even the biggest fool - could understand
|
|
But then your blue eyes turned grey
|
You spoke a lot - but had nothing to say
|
|
So
|
I won't look back
|
I won't look back
|
You had all of me there for the taking
|
But men like you
|
Can't help just brea-
|
King
|
Down the roses
|
And trampling - them flat
|
|
One time bitten - two times shy
|
It's true I was smitten then, and you know why
|
You charmed me off my feet
|
Using your beautiful smile, so bittersweet
|
|
But then your blue eyes turned grey
|
You spoke so much, but had nothing to say
|
So
|
I won't look back
|
I won't look back
|
Even though I know you really tried to love me
|
It was not enough you simply had to shove me
|
In a corner babe, and hey - I don't want that
|
|
I gave you my best, but you blew it
|
You threw it back at me
|
You can't have the rest
|
'Cos that's Private Property
|
|
No I won't look back
|
I won't look back
|
When I think I see you in the distance
|
I call on all of my resistance
|
And tell myself - hey girl - don't you crack
|

I Won't Look Back
