Lyrics
This Time Around
Wish I could write the book that tells about the wheel
The never ending cycle the pages would all reveal
I?ve been dragging my heart like the weight of a stone
But this feeling is better than being alone
I have to take a tiny step in the wrong direction
And feel the deep regret just to learn my lesson
If I could just let go then I could keep my
Feet on the ground this time around
I?m just a paper doll who?s got no faith or focus
Thinking love is just some magic hocus pocus
Maybe I?m not the one on the bright side of things
But I?ll live through tomorrow whatever that brings
Every action causes me to react
And once I?ve taken I can?t take it back
If what?s at the end is more than the beginning
Well I just can?t wait that long on this planet here endlessly spinning
Looked over my shoulder and there you stood
Hearing my echo though I didn?t think that you would
Better yet you answered and now here you are
Within arms reach hope forgiveness goes that far
