Third Time Lucky

First one--its a shock
A second helping--not good enough
Third time lucky--and youve 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 dont think so
I have my plans and brave ambition
Knowing no bounds, no inhibitions
nd Im aware theres a lesson in every fall
So next time Ill get closer
First one--its a shock
A second helping--not good enough
Third time lucky--and youve arrived!
If you have any doubts then try one more time
Later I met a boy whose inner life was his true passion
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 Im aware theres a lesson in every fall
So next time I might get it right
