Aimee Mann - Do it again

Do It Again

Album: Coming Up Close - A Retrospective, 1996. ('Til Tuesday)

We talked on the second of December
And I told her that our chances were slender
And this conversation sounded so familiar
Like a welcome mat - a broken blender

We walked to a restuarant she'd been to
And I looked at her while she was looking into
Someone else's mirror - seeing if she's someone too
Giving me that deja vu

I look back
And I see that same old rag
He's calling my name
He says you're gonna do it again

Time is all we need, she finally let out
But I see her drawing maps if she can get out
Now I wonder which of us will get the axe out
And do the final blow

I look back
And I see that same old rag
He's calling my name
He says you're gonna do it again

Says you're gonna do it again

I saw you
I said this time it's different
I'll know better
But I can't keep from loving
I have heard that one before

Ooooh

It was a shock I guess, but I'm not surprised
I would've done the same, if I was in your eyes
You know you left a trail about a mile wide
And though I've been there once
And seen the signs

I just followed you to
my forgone defeat because my
My history has a habit of repeating
I expect some trouble got the same beating
Time and time again

I look back
And I see that same old rag
He's calling my name
He's says you're gonna do it again

Ah - says you're gonna do it again
(says you're gonna do it again)
Says you're gonna do it again
(says you're gonna do it again)
ah (says you're gonna do it again)
ah
(says you;re gonna do it again)
ah
(says you;re gonna do it again)
