"Better luck next time" that could never be,

Because there ain't gonna be no next time for me . . .

No Siree, made up my mind to make another start,

I've made my mind up but I can't make up my heart . . .

I'd like a new lucky day, that would be nice,

But this comes just once in a lifetime, not twice . . .

So don't say, "Better luck next time, that could never be"
