NOT THIS TIME

here we go again
you with your big sad eyes wanting another chance
should i let you in
just so you can break me down again
you want me to forget, you beg me to forgive
far too many times i’ve done just this

i’m not giving in
not giving up
not this time

you’re at my door again
did i cast a sideways glance at some other friend
can’t you let it go
are those demons so dark you have no control
i won’t go ‘round again or give in to this night
your tears said you were sorry
but your hands said otherwise

here we go again
you with your big sad eyes wanting another chance
