I lie awake and watch you sleep Worry lines not so deep That freckled girl you used to be So many years we lived our separate lives Could not forget you if I tried But an angel brought you back to me I used to have such grand romantic plans, but holding hands means more now I've learned to love the little things, the second time around This time we won't care who was right or who was wrong This time when I'm in your arms, it feels like I belong We're both older now, a little wisdom found Love is sweeter the second time around I used to dream of how it might've gone If we hadn't been so young With all those lessons left to learn This second chance is like a precious jewel It's our small miracle We've seen how love can return I used to be afraid to give myself away, always held back somehow Gonna love you with my whole heart the second time around This time we won't care who was right or who was wrong This time when I'm in your arms, it feels like I belong We're both older now, a little wisdom found Love is sweeter the second time around Then our timing wasn't right so I'm gonna take right now Love is sweeter the second time around
