[Verse 1]
Oh, gypsy, please
Won't you give me
The secret key
Of life's mystery?
Then she said
[Chorus]
"First hand experience in
Second hand love
You need
First hand experience in
Second hand love"
[Verse 2]
Oh, gypsy girl
Won't you unfurl
The flag of life
Before my eyes?
And she said
[Chorus]
"First hand experience in
Second hand love
You need
First hand experience in
Second hand love"
[Bridge]
Then she read my hand
Second hand love
Then she read my eyes
Second hand love
And said I am a man
Second hand love
Who must learn to cry
Then she took her cards
Second hand love
The tarot pack of truth
Second hand love
And gazed towards the stars
Second hand love
Said I must learn to lose
[Verse 3]
Gypsy girl
Oh, can't you see
That you're the one
That I really need?
She said I need
[Chorus]
First hand experience in
Second hand love
You need
First hand experience in
Second hand love
[Bridge]
Then she read my hand
Second hand love
And then she read my eyes
Second hand love
And said I am a man
Second hand love
Who must learn to cry
And then she took her cards
Second hand love
The tarot pack of truth
Second hand love
And gazed towards the stars
Second hand love
Said I must learn to lose
[Verse 4]
First hand experience in
Second hand love
I need
First hand experience in
Second hand love
I need
First hand experience in
Second hand love
I need
First hand experience in
Second hand love
[Outro]
I need
First hand experience in
Second hand love
I need
First hand experience in
Second hand love
