Second Time Around
Embracing Love's Resilience: Second Chances and Unseen Angels
Lyrics
Lord knows, I’ve seen a lot of things in my life
Reflecting on a life filled with various experiences
Some good, some bad, my first kid, my first wife
Mentioning both positive and negative life events, including the birth of the first child and the first marriage
I guess I’ve weathered a storm or two
Implying resilience in facing challenges and difficulties
But I’ve never seen a thing like you
Expressing awe at something extraordinary or unique
I’ve tried to be a good man on my own
Describing efforts to be a virtuous individual independently
Work hard, share the yard with my own garden gnome
Working hard and cultivating a personal space with a touch of humor (garden gnome)
Well, what’s a single guy to do?
Posing a question about the challenges faced by a single person
Til now I’ve never seen a thing like you
Expressing surprise or admiration for something new and exceptional
Oh love lift me up, lift me up
Pleading for love to uplift during difficult times
When I’m feeling down
Desiring emotional support when feeling low
Oh love, pick me up, pick me up
Asking for assistance when facing setbacks
When I get knocked down, c’mon now
Encouraging the supportive nature of love
I hope it’s better the second time around
Expressing hope for improvement in the second attempt at love
Who knows the things she must’ve seen out there
Speculating about the challenging experiences the person has had
So much time on your own can be hard to bear
Highlighting the difficulty of being alone for an extended period
She’s so strong and brave and more
Complimenting the person's strength, bravery, and more
I guess I’ve never seen an angel before
Expressing awe at encountering someone remarkable or angelic
Oh love lift her up, lift her up
Requesting love to uplift the mentioned person
When she’s feeling down
Seeking emotional support for the person during tough times
Oh love, pick her up, pick her up
Asking for assistance when the person faces challenges
When she gets knocked down, c’mon now
Encouraging the supportive nature of love for the person
Please get her back on solid ground
Expressing a desire for stability and security for the person
Protect her
Expressing a wish for protection for the person
Keep her safe and sound
Wishing for the person's safety and well-being
