This Time Around
Kenny Edwards & Wendy Waldman
Valgovind Music (BMI), Big Kitty Music (ASCAP)

No rain for a hundred days No work, no pay It's hard to hold on to love around here One by one they all disappear Oh baby it's a long way down I always promised I would stand my ground Water's rising but we won't drown I know we can make it this time around Now people say love can drive you crazy Steal away any any heart you have It may be hard but it's still amazing Don't make me live without a love so mad Oh baby it's a long way down I always promised I would stand my ground Water's rising but we won't drown I know we can make it this time around If there really is destiny It's with you by my side Dusty winds blow us out to sea What a crazy ride If forture comes to our neighborhood Sitting high, we'll be living good If we wind up in a little shack There's not a word I'd take back Oh baby it's a long way down I always promised I would stand my ground Water's rising but we won't drown I know we can make it this time around Water's high but we won't drown I know we can make it this time around We're gonna make it this time around We're gonna make it this time around
