Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

This time baby,
I'll give you all I have.
Gonna love you back,
baby this time.

This time baby,
it's gonna be so sweet,
I'll be all you need,
baby this time.
your heart is safe with me,
baby, this time.

That's the beauty of,
second chances.
Someone believes enough,
to let you try again.
I wanna thank you,
I wanna love you,
that's why I'm here tonight,
this time baby,
I'm gonna get it right.

This time baby,
You won't dream alone,
I found my way back home,
baby, this time.
This time, baby.
When the rain starts coming down,
we'll find some higher ground,
baby, this time.
We'll hold on somehow,
baby, this time.

That's the beauty of
second chances.
Someone believes enough,
to let you try again
I wanna thank you,
I wanna love you,
That's why I'm here tonight,
this time baby,
gonna get it right.

I wanna love you,
really love you,
that's why I'm here tonight...




this time, baby,
I'm gonna get it right.
