"Second Time Around" lyrics

I was a beer-drinking, hellraising
Every Friday night I was out chasing
The moon
Instead of hanging with you
I had a short fuse, jealous
Looking back now I was selfish
And lied
When I said that I never loved you

That moment slipped right through our hands
But we got another chance

'Cause the first time we were young
The first time we were drunk
The first time baby we burned real hot
But we faded like the sun
The first time it was crazy
We got real close but maybe
Tonight we're gonna find forever
Like we never found

The second time around
Yeah
The second time around
Yeah

I made some damn good memories
Well I bet you ain't had one good as me
You're right girl, I tried but I ain't been close
Not even close

'Cause the first time we were young
The first time we were drunk
The first time baby we burned real hot
But we faded like the sun
The first time it was crazy
We got real close but maybe
Tonight we're gonna find forever
Like we never found

The second time around
The second time around
Yeah

You're still wearing that smile
You're still wearing those boots
Bet we'll get it right
'Cause we already know what not to do, yeah

'Cause the first time we were young
The first time we were drunk
The first time baby we burned real hot
But we faded like the sun
The first time it was crazy
We got real close but maybe
Tonight we're gonna find forever
Like we never found
(Like we never found)

The second time around
The second time around
