Lyrics
RIGHT THIS TIME
Parvin & Patterson
Copyright 2006
Well I had you down on that low blue flame
But you let things simmer a little too long
Some white knight look-alike jumped my claim
Truth be known there ain't no one to blame
How can something go so wrong?
You make love in the eye of the hurricane
And you feel the earth burning down in the core
But a love like that you can't sustain
No talkin' to death no goin' insane
Could make it like it was before
CHORUS:
Give me a chance Lord I won't waste it
Love's so close I can almost taste it
Slippin' and fallin' it ain't no crime
We can get it right this time
We can get it right this time
Well I hear you inherited your mama's place
That I ran from twenty-odd years ago
So life gave you nothing but a cold embrace
And memories I would like to erase
Sometimes you've got to just lay low
If I promise not to try to negotiate
I might have you in for some company
I can show you baby that it's never too late
For all we know well this time it's fate
But I don't come with no guarantee
CHORUS:
Give me a chance Lord I won't waste it
Love's so close I can almost taste it
Lovin' and losin' well it ain't no crime
We can get it right this time
We can get it right this time
