You're Only Human (Second Wind)

You're having a hard time and lately you don't feel so good

You're getting a bad reputation in your neighborhood

It's alright, it's alright, sometimes that's what it takes

You're only human, you're allowed to make your share of mistakes

(You're only human, ooo-ooo)

You better believe there will be times in your life

When you'll be feeling like a stumbling fool

So take it from me you'll learn more from your accidents

Than anything that you could ever learn at school

Don't forget your second wind

Sooner of later you'll get your second wind

It's not always easy to be living in this world of pain

You're gonna be crashing into stone walls again and again

It's alright, it's alright, though you feel your heart break

You're only human, you're gonna have to deal with heartache

(You're only human, ooo-ooo)

Just like a boxer in a title fight

You got to walk in that ring all alone

You're not the only one who's made mistakes

But they're the only thing that you can truly call your own

Don't forget your second wind

Wait in that corner until that breeze blows in

You've been keeping to yourself these days

Cause you're thinking everything's gone wrong

Sometimes you just want to lay down and die

That emotion can be so strong

But hold on 'till that old second wind comes along

(You're only human, ooo-ooo)

You probably don't want to hear advice from someone else

But I wouldn't be telling you if I hadn't been there myself

It's alright, it's alright, sometimes that's all it takes

We're only human, we're supposed to make mistakes

(You're only human, ooo-ooo)

But I survived all those long lonely days

When it seemed I did not have a friend

Cause all I needed was a little faith

So I could catch my breath and face the world again

Don't forget your second wind

Sooner or later you'll feel that momentum kick in

(One more time!)

Don't forget your second wind

Sooner or later you'll feel that momentum kick in

Don't forget your second wind

(You're only human, ooo-ooo)
