Not A Second Time

By John T. Marck

Mainly written by John, it was another fashioned after Smokey Robinson and The Miracles. John's inner feelings come through again, whereby he is saying that after being let down and made to cry, he shuts off his emotions, so as not to be hurt a second time. Recorded on September 11, 1963, it is one of the best on the album, I believe.

You know you made me cry, I  see no use in wondering why,

I cry, for you

And now you've changed your mind, I see no reason to change mine

I cry, is through, oh

You're giving me the same old line, I'm wondering why

You hurt me then, you're back again, no, no, no, not a second time

You know you made me cry, I see no use in wondering why,

I cry, for you, oo yeah

And now you've changed your mind, I see no reason to change mine

I cry, is through, oh

You're giving me the same old line, I'm wondering why

You hurt me then, you're back again, no, no, no, not a second time,

Not a second time, not the second time,

no, no, no, no, not a second time
