Verse 1:         Happiness was ours one time,

                        I think I remember it well;

                        Then one night she kept me late,

                        And lord, you gave me hell ... you gave me hell.

 

 

Verse 2:         We made up in a fight or two,

And you started treating me fine;

Until that neighbor gal came by

Still wanting to be mine ... wanting to be mine.

 

 

Chorus:          Sure enough it made life tense,

                        And what I’d done made little sense;

                        But being with you I’ve learned this much:

                        Never make the same mistake once.

 

 

Verse 3:         So I tried and wicked hard

To make things right again;

Forgiveness wasn’t yours to spare,

So I’ll suffer for my sin ... suffer for my sin.

 

 

(Repeat chorus)

 

 

Bridge:           A baby learns from its first steps,

Not quitting with one fall;

If just one chance was all we got,

Forever we would crawl ... forever we would crawl.

 

 

(Repeat chorus)
