"Third time lucky" Lyrics

its all behind me, there's good luck up ahead
can't break what's left of my heart
once bitten, twice shy, this time it feels so good
I'd hate to see it fall apart

first love I had was seventeen, and I was younger
love to us was some kind of game
in all my letters, said I never would forget her, now
I can't recall her name

the first time I was a fool, I never knew that love could be so cruel
it happened to me again, third time lucky

I was in love one time, I thought it was the real thing
but I kept the feelings to myself
afraid to show it, expected her to know
it was the reason she found someone else

it's all behind me, there's good luck up ahead
can't break what's left of my heart
once bitten, twice shy, this time it feels so good
I'd hate to see it fall apart

the first time I was a fool, I never knew that love could be so cruel
it happened to me again, third time lucky
oh yeah, yeah
(4x)
the first time I was a fool
