Lyric History Never Repeats

(N Finn) - Waiata
       -=====================================-

[chorus:]
History never repeats
I tell myself before I go to sleep
Don t say the words you might regret
I ve lost before you know I can t forget

There was a girl I used to know
She dealt my love a savage blow
I was so young, too blind to see
But anyway that s History

I say [chorus]

You say I always played the fool
Well I can t go on, if that s the rule
Better to jump than hesitate
I need a change and I can t wait

[chorus2:]
History never repeats
I tell myself before I go to sleep
And there s a light shining in the dark
Leading me on towards a change of heart
(ah-ar)

History never repeats, history never repeats

Deep in the night it s all so clear
I lie awake with great ideas
Lurking about in no-man s land
I think at last I understand

[chorus2]
Never repeats!...
Hey.... Hey....
Never repeats!

And I say, that s all
Remember til the next time

[all?:] thank you!

won t you stay, stay a while with my own one
one more day, one more day with my own ones
this old world, is so cold, don t care nothing for your soul
you share with your own ones...

Haul away, haul away, heave away, haul away, haul away, heave away
