Lyrics: Once Burned, Twice Shy

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
