This Time

I've been here once before

The feelings are familiar but the faces have changed

And the last time I swore

I'd never put my self out on the line that way

Another man would walk away

Another man would say he's had enough

But I'm ready to go again

Cause she's been through it just like me

And she can tell that this time it's for real

This time there'll be no mistake

This time if the world falls in around us

We'll be strong enough to put it all back again

She used to be so sure

She'd never take a chance with anyone again

She had it all worked out

And then just like me she found herself alive again

Another girl would be afraid

Another girl would turn and run away

But she's ready to go again

Cause she's been through it just like me

And she can tell that this time it's for real
