Lyrics

This time- I won't do what I did last time
I won't stand on her doorstep at the stroke of 8
'Stead I'll park 'round the corner, and make myself wait
And count every second till I'm 10 minutes late
It'll be oh so different this time

This time- I won't say what I said last time
I won't talk about passion, or love, or destiny
In fact I won't talk at all-I'll just nod appropriately
And pray that my eyes don't do my talking for me
It'll be oh so different-so different this time

This time- I won't feel what I feel, when I feel too much
This time-I swear, all I'll feel is the feel of her touch
This time-I'll see she only sees what I want her to see
This time- I'm kicking the habit of acting like me

This time- I won't be who I was last time
I'll be clever, but distant, and hard to pin down
And I won't play the poet, or the lover, or the clown
I'll just be what I must be, to keep her around
It'll be oh so different-so different this time
As God is my witness- I will be totally different
Oh - so different this time
