Basia - Third Time Lucky lyrics

First one--it's a shock A second helping--not good enough Third time lucky--and you've arrived! If you have any doubts then try once more... Maybe I was too impressed... He flattered--I was blushing He found my _joie de vivre_ so cute and rather touching Himself so upwardly mobile, so cerebral, clever Could I ever live up to his dreams Or would I like to play a part in his scheme? I don't think so... I have my plans and brave ambition Knowing no bounds, no inhibitions 'nd I'm aware there's a lesson in every fall So next time I'll get closer First one--it's a shock A second helping--not good enough Third time lucky--and you've arrived! If you have any doubts then try one more time Later I met a boy whose inner life was his true pa**ion We did connect in an exploratory fashion He claimed what tie us to this mortal coil we should sever Could I ever live up to his dreams Or would I like to play a part in his scheme? Oh I fear not... I have my plans and brave ambition Knowing no bounds, no inhibitions 'nd I'm aware there's a lesson in every fall So next time I might get it right
