This Time Around Lyrics



I saw your children in the sunset

And the sky was full of voices

Oh I remember and I forget

how we’ve tired from our choices

I should have listened with my heart and not my head

But I chose to run instead



I know nothing hurries up the pain

I know nothing lightens up the rain

I know nothing heals without a trace

to everything I’ve found this time around



I couldn’t know how much I’d love you

just to see you still the cries

of the angels you gave birth to

songs I long to recognize

when we were children we would dance

upon our worried toes

and if we’d hurry, we’d forget our woes



I know nothing hurries up the pain

I know nothing lightens up the rain

I know nothing stops you getting old

I know nothing warms you when you’re cold like this

I know nothing could’ve

Kept me from this road to everything

I’ve found this time around
