Never was no kind of answer
to all my mama's prayers
whatever it is that makes a
man go and choose to make himself a better man
well I guess I never got my fair share
I was headed out for somewhere
I had no reason to be
when you came out of nowhere just in time
to save me from my foolish sympathies

Gonna get it right this time
gonna get it right this time
well, it's the last time, baby,
and I've gotta get it right this time

Never see things black and white
don't really think about it much
but I've never been so sure I'm in the
right place at the right time
every time I feel the strength of your touch
it's so hard to keep a straight line
but you're still waiting to see
I'm hanging on to your sweet trust
'cause it's the only faith I have in me

Gonna get it right this time
gonna get it right this time
well, it's the last time, baby,
and I've gotta get it right this time
got a little light left shining
got a little light left shining
well, maybe it's too late, I swear
I'm gonna get it right this time

Don't let me down
don't let me down
don't let me down
yeah, don't let me down

Gonna get it right this time
gonna get it right this time
well, it's the last time, baby,
I've gotta get it right this time
got a little light left shining
got a little light left shining
well, maybe it's too late, I swear
I'm gonna get it right this time
well, maybe it's too late, I swear
I'm gonna get it right this time
