Once Burned - Lyrics by Rundgren Todd


Lyrics
So few and far between,  Here's a mood I've never seen you in.  I should have known not to ask you why  And set myself up for one big, long cry.  Once burned and twice removed  Thought I made it now but nothing's proved.  Set in my mind not to push too hard,  And now I wind up back in your backyard.  No one cares about the loser,  No one gets a second chance,  Even you, even me, if it's through.  Don't you see that it's one thing if I should lose again,  But to walk away twice is a crying shame.
