When times were easy then they got tough
He didn't know if he had quite enough
He kept on pushing til he made it through
Nights were so long the loneliness hurt
The random girl made him feel like dirt
He didn't know of anything else he could do
Thinking that he finally made it in his mind
Still the emptiness was all that he could find
Until one day he met someone special so new
Was she just like all the other ones from before?
In his bed one day then the next out the door
Maybe she would be his own dream come true
Fear filled his heart then it filled his mind
Was she like the others he had left behind?
This girl was so unique he didn't know what to do
She was happy she was calm with a sweet smile
Her kindness alone was enough to beguile
He felt himself falling as his love for her grew
Knowing he wanted her with him for the rest of his life
Knowing he wanted only to ask her to be his wife
The terrible truth he hid was one that only he knew
How could he tell her that he had been living a lie
This sweet heart he knew he had to pass on by
It hurt to admit to himself what he knew he had to do
She was the one he had searched for though it took too long
To belong to someone else when the right one comes along
His lot in life was the wildcard in life which he drew
His marriage came to an abrupt ending hence
He didn't blame the mom to his kids in her defense
She still loved him in her heart he still loved her too
Now the long nights returned to what they were before
The tossing the turning with so much pacing the floor
Cycling of girls had sadly returned in his life too
Could he find another like the sweet girl he had known?
Could she forgive him his lies when his cover was blown?
It would be even tougher with another someone new
When he went to find her he couldn't believe his eyes
The sweet girl who still loved him to his great surprise
As his eyes filled with tears in an instant his heart grew
Knowing the mum to his kids had found her own way
With one who loved her truly on her second wedding day
It eased his mind of the guilt that he had caused to brew
The sweet girl gave him a chance to right his prior wrong
Oh the joy in being free to love the second time it comes along
This is the story of many that takes a lifetime to work through
