This Time Around

Howie Day · Stop All the World Now [2003]

Every single hour in my hands

Every second word that goes to send

Another day is tied behind my back

Another beating heart is all I have



But not this time around

Not this time around

If you came around

I'd leave the skies today

Not this time around



I never thought I'd live to see this day

I always knew the sun would go away

I never had the strength to turn away, oh

In the end is always how I feel



Not this time around

Not this time around

If you came around

I'd leave the skies today

Not this time around



How will I

Will you find me?

How will I

Been away

Oh will I

Will you find me?

How will I ever know?



I don't believe in beautiful mistakes

Every turn of fate is on to take

Another turn or second chance goes by

Every wrong turn comes an eye to eye



Not this time around

Not this time around

And if you came around

I'd leave the skies today

Not this time around



But not this time around

Well I'd leave the skies today

Not this time around

Not this time around

I'd leave the skies today
