If I had my time again There'd be no days wasted In playing hard to get As for now all I regret Are the joys untasted If I had my time again You would find me bolder Not hard to get to know On the mark all set to go And no cold shoulder We've been told in every generation By the ladies in the magazines To keep our distance keep our fascination Well they can tell it to the marines If I had my time again It could mean disaster I'd be burning to begin I guess I wouldn't always win But at least I'd be moving faster
