Lyrics

This Time

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I've been practicing all day

Now the words I've meant to say are gone

I promised that I wouldn't cry

Told myself I have to try and hold on

The truth, I lied

I hate myself inside

And why

I played the game and paid the price

I never looked back

I never cried, never tried to wonder why

I'll be on my own

I never doubt, never shout

Or wonder how

I'll never be lonely

Until this time, this time, this time

This time I will

I've been wide awake on night

There's no sight of sleep inside my mind

The headlight shadows scares my wall

I convince myself you'll call in time

The truth, I lied

The girl in me has died

And why?

I played the game and paid the price

I never looked back

I never cried, never tried to wonder why

I'll be on my own

I never doubt, never shout

Or wonder how

I'll never be lonely

Until this time, this time, this time

This time I will

This time I will

Be yours completely

This time I'll

Make sure you don't hate me

This time I know

This time I can

This time I will

I never looked back

I never cried, never tried to wonder why

I'll be on my own

I never doubt, never shout

Or wonder how

I'll never be lonely

Until this time, this time

This time I Will

I've been practicing all day

Now the words I've meant to say are gone
