Verse 1:
Remember the time I stood you up, left you with empty coffee cups, back then my state of mind was so damn clouded.
When I realized what I had done, called back and gave you my reasons, begged for another chance then did it again.
Pre-Chorus:
A guy who stands a girl up twice probably doesn't seem to nice but if I get another try I'll do it right.
Verse 2:
So you ignored me day to day but some days we'd end up face to face and in those moments you would be so cordial.
No more warm personality, strictly professional with me, the smiles and eyes we made became so empty.
Pre-Chorus:
I understand your sense of pride, a girl like you don't come round twice but If I get another try I'll do it right.
Chorus:
Bridge:
Then finally after a year against your numerous protests you finally said yes. Now we can go and grab a drink, tell me girl what do you think, we won't stay out all night I swear we'll do this right.
I understand your sense of pride but it's time to just put that aside, come close sit next to me I swear I won't make a scene.
A guy who stands a girl up twice probably doesn't seem to nice but you gave me another try and I'm gonna make the best of it this time.
