“Agnetha Fältskog-Once Burned Twice Shy“, sound recording administered by: UMG. Copyright Sound belongs to UMG. ----------------------------------------­----------------------------------------------- Song by Agnetha Faltskog (ABBA) “Once Burned, Twice Shy“ is from the “Wrap Your Arms Around Me“ album from 1983. She recorded and preformed it together with Smokie: Alan Silson, Chris Norman and Terry Uttley as backing vocals. The song I used for this video has the typical Smokie sound. It was a special TV show in Stockholm from April 1983. This TV show was part of a promotional tour to publicise her first solo album after Agnetha left Abba. It was called “Wrap Your Arms Around Me“. The album reached No.1 in Sweden, Norway, Finland, Belgium and Denmark. “Once Burned Twice Shy“song reached No.1 in Sweden, Belgium and No.3 in Holland. Lyrics: Once burned, twice shy I’ve learned , I’ve cried And I’m never gonna hurt that way again Once burned , twice shy My heart, I’ll hide If it’s ever gonna have a chance to mend Here he comes again He wants to talk to me And as he walks to me I feel so empty inside Oh what can I say to him He’s the one who hurts me so Tell him that he’ll have to go I’ve got no more tears to cry Once burned, twice shy I’ve learned , I’ve cried And I’m never gonna hurt that way again Once burned , twice shy My heart, I’ll hide If it’s ever gonna have a chance to mend Someday he’ll learn Someday he’ll get burned And he’ll say: Once burned, twice shy I’ve learned , I’ve cried And I’m never gonna hurt that way again Once burned , twice shy My heart, I’ll hide If it’s ever gonna have a chance to mend
