Lyrics

Second Nature

[Verse 1]

Something tells me when something's wrong

Seems like it's been such a long long time since I felt that one

You have your ways and I have my ways

And like the back of my hand I know it

And I don't have to try to make you show it

[Chorus]

You don't have to show me how

'Cause it's second nature to me now

Something's taken hold of me somehow

'Cause it's second nature to me now

[Bridge]

Nobody must explain to me your way of communication

Give me the time to understand

I always come around

[Verse 2]

I have my ways and you have your ways

And we need no elaboration

We can just enjoy that sweet sensation

[Chorus]

You don't have to show me how

'Cause it's second nature to me now

Something's taken hold of me somehow

'Cause it's second nature to me now

[Outro]

You don't have to show me

'Cause it's second nature to me now....
