It's been nearly four years
Since we tied the knot
After scores of years
Living our lives apart

We first met at First B, way back when
She wanted to be, much more than friends
But I wasn't too keen, way back then
Couldn't see, what was up around the bend

We met again online
Many long years later
She'd been married n divorced twice
My wife had gone to meet her maker

It was love at second sight
The first time I didn't take her
Once bitten, twice shy
We fell in love many years later

It was love at second sight
I was caught - off guard
Once bitten, twice shy
Third time's - the charm

I was seekin' my queen of hearts
Disheartened and dejected
Didn't think of her from the start
I'm just glad we reconnected

First met her way back in the day
When I was in my twenties
Then we went our separate ways
But our lives were kinda empty

It was love at second sight
Now that my wife was gone
Once bitten -- twice shy
Third time's the charm

It was love at second sight
Took this prince's kiss to wake her
Once bitten, twice shy
This time I tried to take her

It was love at second sight
My wife had bought the farm
Once bitten, twice shy
Third time's the charm

It was love at second sight
Now she's right here in my arms
Once bitten, twice shy
Third time's the charm 

Love at Second Sight

It's been nearly four years
Since we tied the knot
After scores of years
Living our lives apart

First met at First Baptist Church
Didn't know how she felt
Then I left her in the lurch
And chose someone else

We met again online
Many long years later
She'd been married n divorced two times
My wife had gone to meet her maker

It was love at second sight
The first time I didn't take her
Back then I wasn't too bright
Fell in love many years later

It was love at second sight
I finally let down my guard
Once bitten, twice shy
Third time's - the charm

I was seekin' my queen of hearts
Flippin' over three or four cards
Didn't think of her from the start
Finally found my northern star

We first met back in the day
Back in our teens and twenties
Then went our separate ways
But we were feelin' sad n empty

It was love at second sight
Now that my wife was gone
Once bitten -- twice shy
Third time's the charm

It was love at second sight
Took this prince's kiss to wake her
Once bitten, twice shy
This time I tried to take her

It was love at second sight
I found my queen of hearts
Once bitten, twice shy
Third time's the charm

It was love at second sight
Now she's right here in my arms
Once bitten, twice shy
Third time's the charm
