Won't Do It Twice - Judie Tzuke

It’s a school of pain that I’m studying in

I never thought I’d get caught like this again

It’s a struggle to find a place to start rebuilding all

My world on a fragile heart

So it’s back to where I came from

Get down to get myself up right here at the start again

I won’t smell you if I don’t breathe in

If I close my eyes then you won’t get in

I try to find another way to circle round this life

'Cause you’ve done this to me once

And you won’t do it twice

What are friends for, are they overrated

Oh still worth fighting for?

Right now it’s hard to tell

Empty promises, vague excuses, I don’t want to face the truth

Though I know it very well

So it’s back to where I came from

Get down to get myself up right here at the start again

I won’t smell you if I don’t breathe in

If I close my eyes then you won’t get in

I try to find another way to circle round this life

'Cause you’ve done this to me once

And you won’t do it twice

I keep repeating the same mistakes

With different people in a different place

I don’t want to believe it’s wrong to feel anything at all

And I know it’ll happen again

I won’t smell you if I don’t breathe in

And if I close my eyes then you won’t get in

I try to find another way to circle round this life

'Cause you’ve done this to me once

And you won’t do it twice

You won’t do it twice
