Once is not enough when I'm dealing with someone like you
When I do something wrong you come at me like a raging storm
Your eyes flash lightning and your mood it goes from cold to warm
If I should try to speak your look tells me I've nothing to say
To make it better but somehow I've got to find a way
Chorus:
Once is not enough when I'm dealing with someone like you
(Someone like you)
I'm not much warmer if I try two, twelve, or twenty-two
If I'm on my knees
I beg you please
To accept my 5000 APOLOGIES
Your moods, they come and go but I set them off like people will
I've got to find a way to avoid your Arctic chill
If I should shut my mouth you accuse me of being impolite
To speak or keep my tongue? How to choose which is more right?
(Chorus)
Bridge:
Why don't you learn to relax sometime?
What's that, I've made you angry?
Well excuse my mouth
Excuse my mind
I just thought a break would be nice
What's that, I've got you mad?
Well I'm sorry once
I'm sorry twice
(Guitar solo)
I think it's time for us to reach some sort of compromise
I think it would be best just to relax--yes, it would be wise
But looking in your eyes I see that thunder brewing strong
Just give me a moment, I've got to figure out what I did wrong
(Chorus twice)
(Ad-lib to fade)
--March 1998
