This Time Around

**Verse 1:** We had our highs and lows, we rode the tide, Built our dreams, but they faded over time. Love was a fire, burning wild and free, But we lost the spark somewhere in between. **Pre-Chorus:** Promises we made, they slipped through our hands, Like grains of sand, they couldn’t withstand. The weight of our silence, the distance grew, But I'd rewrite the script if it meant keeping you. **Chorus:** I'd do it all different this time around, Turn every tear into a smile, never let you down. I'd hold on tighter, never let you go, Learn from the past and let our love grow. I'd do it all different this time around, I'd do it all different, if you were still around. **Verse 2:** Nights are colder now, since you walked away, Echoes of your laughter haunt me every day. We were tangled up in love, but we came undone, Now I'm left with memories of what we've become. **Pre-Chorus:** Regrets and apologies, they fill my mind, Searching for the words I never could find. If I could turn back time, rewrite our fate, I'd make sure our love never turned to hate. **Chorus:** I'd do it all different this time around, Turn every tear into a smile, never let you down. I'd hold on tighter, never let you go, Learn from the past and let our love grow. I'd do it all different this time around, I'd do it all different, if you were still around. (Solo) **Bridge:** Every night I pray for a second chance, To hold you close, to make you understand. The love we had was worth fighting for, I'd change the ending, if I could rewrite the score. **Chorus:** I'd do it all different this time around, Turn every tear into a smile, never let you down. I'd hold on tighter, never let you go, Learn from the past and let our love grow. I'd do it all different this time around, I'd do it all different, if you were still around. **Outro:** I'd do it all different this time around, If I could find a way to turn things around. I'd do it all different, I'd make it right, I'd do it all different, hold you through the night.
