The Second Time Around Lyrics

Shirley Horn The Second Time Around

[Verse 1]
Love is lovelier the second time around
Just as wonderful with both feet on the ground
It's that second time you hear your love song sung
Makes you think, perhaps, that love, like youth
Is wasted on the young

[Verse 2]
Love's more comfortable the second time you fall
Like a friendly home, the second time you call
Who can say what bought us to this miracle we found
There are some who bet love comes but once, and yet
I'm, oh, so glad we met the second time around
[Outro]
There are those who bet love comes but once, and yet
I'm, oh, so glad we met the second time around
