Next Time

Another lover gone 

It’s becoming a routine 

Fireworks 

Then I’m a jerk 

And nothing in between 

But I know, yes I know this time what I did wrong 

Good intentions 

Lack of attention 

Knew it all along 

 

Next time I’m gonna walk her in the moonlight 

Next time I’m gonna tell her how I feel 

Next time I’m gonna rock her until midnight 

And she’ll never have to wonder if my love is real 

I learned my lesson and it’s better late than never 

And the next time I fall in love it will be forever 

 

Starting again 

Back at square one (it’s no fun) 

Never any doubt 

Always thinking ‘bout 

The foolish things I’ve done 

But I know, yes I know in my heart what’s true 

Past is past 

Gotta make love last 

If it’s the last thing that I do 

 

Next time I’m gonna walk her in the moonlight 

Next time I’m gonna tell her how I feel 

Next time I’m gonna rock her until midnight 

And she’ll never have to wonder if my love is real 

I learned my lesson and it’s better late than never 

And the next time I fall in love it will be forever 

 

Don’t you know by now? 

Don’t you know it yet? 

Time won’t wait for you 

You gotta start givin’ ‘stead of livin’ in regret 

Ohhhh! 

 

Next time I’m gonna walk her in the moonlight 

Next time I’m gonna tell her how I feel 

Next time I’m gonna rock her until midnight 

And she’ll never have to wonder if my love is real 

I learned my lesson and it’s better late than never 

 

And the next time I fall in love it will be forever 

Yeah the next time I fall in love it will be forever 

 

No more next times 

No more next times 

No more next times
