Second Time Around Lyrics

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
