Once burned, twice shy I've learned, I've cried And I'm never gonna hurt that way again Once burned, twice shy My heart, I'll hide If it's ever gonna have a chance to mend Here he comes again, he wants to talk to me And as he walks to me, I feel so empty inside Oh what can I say to him? He's the one who hurts me so Tell him that he'll have to go I've got no more tears to cry Once burned, twice shy I've learned, I've cried And I'm never gonna hurt that way again Once burned, twice shy My heart, I'll hide If it's ever gonna have a chance to mend Someday he'll learn Someday he'll get burned And he'll say Once burned, twice shy I've learned, I've cried And I'm never gonna hurt that way again Once burned, twice shy My heart, I'll hide If it's ever gonna have a chance to mend Once burned, twice shy I've learned, I've cried And I'm never gonna hurt that way again Once burned, twice shy My heart, I'll hide If it's ever gonna have a chance to mend
