This Time
E.D.P.S Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Or are we tired of looking?
Searching, for more than eyes can see
For something to believe in
Slipped away, fell away, tried to play yourself
No turning back, all alone
And there's nobody else
Who even knows I'm missing
I and I won't run this time
It's worth more than the chance we're taking
I and I won't run this time
Wanting more has got me waiting
This time for love
And nothing ever changes
Waiting, gets harder every time
I don't know how to stay still
And nothing more left to lose
Throw it all away
May be the last chance I get to see your face
I can't afford to leave here
I and I won't run this time
It's worth more than the chance we're taking
I and I won't run this time
Wanting more has got me waiting
This time for love
I and I won't run this time
I can't believe the chance we're taking
I and I won't run this time
I need to know so I'll be waiting
This time for love
I and I won't run this time
It's worth more than the chance we're taking
I and I won't run this time
Wanting more has got me waiting
This time for love
I and I won't run this time
I can't believe the chance we're taking
I and I won't run this time
I and I won't run this time
This time from love

Line by Line Meaning
Is this where we need to be?
Are we in the right place or situation?
Or are we tired of looking?
Are we exhausted from searching for something more?
Searching, for more than eyes can see
Looking for something beyond the surface
For something to believe in
For a cause or purpose to commit to
Slipped away, fell away, tried to play yourself
Tried and failed to escape a situation you put yourself in
No turning back, all alone
Cannot go back and must face the consequences alone
And there's nobody else
No one else to turn to for help or guidance
Who even knows I'm missing
No one is aware of your absence
I and I won't run this time
I won't avoid or run away from the situation this time
It's worth more than the chance we're taking
The potential payoff is worth the risk
Wanting more has got me waiting
Desiring more motivates me to be patient
This time for love
This time, the reason for taking the risk is love
And nothing ever changes
The situation remains stagnant
Waiting, gets harder every time
The waiting becomes increasingly difficult with each attempt
I don't know how to stay still
I struggle to remain patient and stationary
And nothing more left to lose
There is nothing else to risk losing
Throw it all away
Consider abandoning everything
May be the last chance I get to see your face
This may be the final opportunity to see someone you care about
I can't afford to leave here
It is not financially or emotionally feasible to depart from this situation
I need to know so I'll be waiting
I desire an answer and will wait for it
I and I won't run this time
I won't run away from the situation this time
I can't believe the chance we're taking
I am amazed by the risk we are taking
I and I won't run this time
I won't back out this time
I and I won't run this time
I will not avoid the situation
This time from love
Running away from love is not an option
