From the recording N.I.C
Lyrics
GET IT RIGHT THIS TIME
(Words and music B. Ralston)
I walk into a darkened room
Any light just filtered dust
I sense the need to break the ice
Kind of wished you’d get in first
So silence gathers round us now
You can feel the tension rise
After years of love and laughter, girl
We now avoid each other’s eyes
I’m torn between love and anger
I wish I knew my crime
I sense I’m on my last chance now
Better get it right this time
I feel the need to hug you girl
To try to stem the pain
But I sense your flinch before the touch
Too late, yet again
I’m torn between love and anger
I wish I knew my crime
I know I’m on my last chance now
Better get it right this time
I’m trying to make some sense of
What makes no sense at all
Will we fall into each other’s arms
Or will I, will I walk out that door
I’m leaning more towards love than anger
I still don’t know my crime
I know I’m on my last chance now
I’m gonna get it right this time
I’m gonna get it right this time
I’m gonna get it right this time
Gonna get it right this time.
