G Broke into the screened-in porch Now I'm crawling through the dog door Em I may let you see me on my knees But you'll never see me on all fours G Drooling on the tile I'm a starfish on the kitchen floor Em Catch my breath to breathe your name G I am just the fool you took me for, uh-huh Chorus: G You can't feel it for the first time a second time Em D F You can't feel it for the first time a second time You gave me your hands 'Cause you didn't know what to do with them And I showed you the way Even though I'd never been Where did we go right? I think about it all the time If I had paid closer attention Maybe I could take us back to there and then Chorus: G But you can't feel it for the first time a second time Em D F You can't feel it for the first time a second time G I can't go back to who I was before I met you Em D F I can't undo what I've done and I wouldn't want to Am I wouldn't want to Bm I wouldn't want to Sneaking out of the house I must be out of my mind I'm running out of excuses We're running out of time You say the love will come and go We'll learn to ride the ebb and flow You always leave before the light Come back same time and place the next night C And how will I know G If history repeats itself? C How will I know G Em When it's gonna come back around? C How will I know? G Em Has my face changed, baby? C How will I know?
