In the romantic song,
the man is begging
the woman to come
back to him,

and he’s asking her
for a second chance.

I’ve never begged a
woman to come
back to me.

I’ve never asked for
a second chance

whether she or
I chose to end things.

But listening to the song
I can see why maybe
begging her to stay,
asking for a second
chance

might be the
right thing to do in
this case

because he cheated
on her.

But were I her, no
matter how sorry
he seemed,

no matter how much
he begged

or even cried, I’d never
have anything to do
with him again.

“History often repeats itself.”

Bob Boyd
