I know you come a long way, baby
But you don’t need that heart of stone, no
You proved that you could do it, do it, baby
You could make it on your own
But you can’t keep runnin’ away from love
‘Cause the first one let you down, no, no, no
And though others try to satisfy you, baby
With me true love can still be found
Love can still be found
(The second time around)
Ooh, the second time is so much better, baby
(The second time around)
And I’ll make it better than the first time
You know I really love you
And I paid for my mistakes, yes, I did, girl
The more I try to hide my feelings, baby
This old heart gets in the way
And love won’t let me wait
(The second time around)
Girl, with me it’s better than the first time
(The second time around)
Let’s do it one more time, say it again
Say it again
(The second time around)
All that I’ve been through
I’ll do it again just as long as I’m with you
(The second time around)
Haaaaaa, the second time
Haaaa-uh
I’ll make it so good to you, babe
I make it so good to you
Not like the first time
(Not like the first time)
Not like the first time
(Not like the first time)
Not like the first time
Talking ’bout the second time
Not like the first time
(Not like the first time)
Not like the first time
(Not like the first time)
Not like the first time
Talking ’bout the second time
You can’t keep runnin’ away from love
‘Cause the first one let you down
And though others try to satisfy you, baby
With me true love can still be found
(The second time around)
I’m gonna keep you mine the second time, baby
(The second time around)
I’ll know what to do
Just as long as I’m with you
(The second time around)
Do it one more time, say it again
The second time around
My father used to own the “Three For Love” LP which includes this classic track.
I used to always stare at the Jody Watley pics on the sleeve, thinking to myself, “Wow, she’s the most beautiful woman in the world”. LOL.
Safe to say, all these years later, Jody still looks damned good!

I did not know what she looked like till the late 1980s – only later did I find out that she was in Shalamar. But, yes, I was taken by her beauty too.
