Second Time
Love's Second Chance: Tom Grennan's Emotional Journey in 'Second Time'
Lyrics
Never thought the door would close
Expresses surprise at the unexpected closure of a door.
Always thought you'd keep it open for me
Believed the door would always be open, indicating a sense of permanence or commitment.
I was just a child I suppose
Reflects on being young and inexperienced.
With a head full of smoke and dreams
Describes a youthful state with unclear thoughts and ambitious dreams.
Now I hear you wanna move on
Acknowledges the desire of the other person to move on.
Looking for that someone, someone who can treat you better
Notes the search for a new partner who can treat better.
But say there's still a light on, and I'll be there tonight
Suggests a glimmer of hope with the mention of a remaining light.
I'm hoping that your heart won't let ya
Expresses hope that the person's heart will prevent them from moving on completely.
Let you fall in love for a second time
Asks if the person can fall in love again for a second time.
Haven't found a way to drink you off my mind
Struggling to forget and move on from the person.
I should let go, God knows I've tried
Acknowledges the difficulty of letting go.
So won't you fall in love for a second
Reiterates the desire for the person to fall in love again.
Love for a second time?
Repeats the question of falling in love for a second time.
I know you did it once
Recalls that the person has fallen in love before.
So I'm praying you can do it again
Hopes that the person can repeat the experience.
If I take you to the places
Proposes revisiting shared memories and experiences.
Talk to you the way I did back then
Expresses a desire to communicate as in the past.
Now I hear you wanna move on
Reiterates the information about the person seeking a new partner.
Looking for that someone, someone who can treat you better
Describes the search for someone better.
But say there's still a light on, and I'll be there tonight

I'm hoping that your heart won't let ya
Hopes that the person's heart will intervene in moving on completely.
Let you fall in love for a second time
