I had a sweetheart, young and true
But I got bored and it fell through
Another week, and back on track, she wouldn't have me back
That's how the story always goes:
Acting first, no thinking twice
Now I've learned, I'm on my toes, and I have some good advice:
Pause and rewind, I wanna try it again
Pause and rewind, I don't want this to end
I feel so doggone left behind
Now won't you be so kind:
Pause and rewind
Whenever there's a woman
With interested in me
I'll always turn her down, as I'm too blind to see
When she's gone, and I'm alone
I may wake up and tell her yes
What then just might have been is just another guess
Pause and rewind, I wanna try it again
Pause and rewind, I don't want this to end
I feel so doggone left behind
Now won't you be so kind:
Pause and rewind
Life is filled with chances
So there is no use to hesitate
Things will only seem so clear, once it is too late
If I live till I get old
I know what I will do
If live to 82 I will be telling you:
Pause and rewind, I wanna try it again
Pause and rewind, I don't want this to end
I left my future far behind
Now won't you please be kind:
Pause and rewind
