Please give me a second grace
Please give me a second face
I've fallen far down the first time around
Now i just sit on the ground in your way

Now if it's time for recompense for what's done
Come, come sit down on the fence in the sun
And the clouds will roll by
And we'll never deny
It's really too hard
For to fly.

Please tell me your second name
Please play me your second game
I've fallen so far for the people you are
I just need your star for a day.

So come, come ride in my my street-car by the bay
For now i must know how fine you are in your way
And the sea sure as I
but she won't need to cry
for it's really too hard
For to fly.
