This Time

oh im sorry girl,

for causing you much pain,

didn't mean to make you cry

make your efforts all in vain

and i apologize

for all the things i've done

you were loving me so much,

but all i did was let you down

oh i really don't

know just what to say

all i know is that

i want you to stay

CHORUS:

this time i'm not gonna let you slip away

this time i'm not gonna let another day go by

without holding you so tight,

without treating you so right.

this time i'm not gonna let go of your love

this time i promise you that we'll rise above it all

and i will never let you fall,

i'm gonna give you my all,

this time

oh i never thought,

that i was hurting you

now i know that i was wrong

now i know just what to do

gonna try to be

the best that i could be

all i need is one more chance

to make it up to you, you'll see

and there's one more thing

that you oughtta know

all i know is that

i don't want you to go.
