This Time

Oh I'm sorry, girl,

For causing you much pain, yeah

Didn't mean to make you cry

Make your efforts all in vain

And I apologize

For all the things I've done, yeah

You were loving me so much

But all I did was let you down

Oh, I really don't

Know just what to say

All I know is that I want you to stay

This time I'm not gonna let you slip away

This time I'm not gonna let another day go by

Without holding you so tight

Without treating you so right

This time I'm not gonna let go of your love

This time I promise you that we'll rise above it all

And I will never let you fall

I'm gonna give my all this time

Oh I never thought

that i was hurtin' you

Now I know that I was wrong

Now I know just what to do

Gonna try to be

The best that I could be, oh yeah

All I need is one more chance

To make it up to you, you'll see

And there's one more thing

That you oughta know

All I know is that I don't want you to go

This time I'm not gonna let you slip away

This time I'm not gonna let another day go by

Without holding you so tight

Without treating you so right

This time I'm not gonna let go of your love

This time I promise you that we'll rise above it all

And I will never let you fall

I'm gonna give my all this time

This time I'm not gonna let you slip away

This time I'm not gonna let another day go by

Without holding you so tight

Without treating you so right

This time I'm not gonna let go of your love

This time I promise you that we'll rise above it all

And I will never let you fall

I'm gonna give my all this time

Oh oh oh oh...

This time, this time...
