Next Time

One too many days

I've felt forgotten

And one too many nights

I've slept alone.

And every time I watch

The fruit turn rotten

I tell myself I'll

Try a little harder

Next time.

Sacred are the ties

That love entrusts us

Even if they fray

Before they bind

And I'm afraid I never

Did you justice

So I'm going to feel my

Love a little stronger

Make it last a little longer

Next time.

Next time

I ain't gonna fall on my knees

And come out of love empty handed.

But next time I'll be

Even harder to please

When will the next time be?

One too many days

I've felt forgotten

And one too many nights

I've slept alone.

And every time I watch

The fruit turn rotten

I tell myself I'll

Try a little harder

Play my cards a little smarter

Next time.

Whoa oh

Next time
