Not This Time

लिरिक्स

[Verse 1] You left your coffee by the window Half a note beside the cup I read it once, then let it go I’m finally done with holding up Your old blue jacket on the chair Still smells like last July I took it down and cleared the air No reason left to wonder why [Pre-Chorus] I was waiting for a sign Now I’m making my own Every step feels right in time I can do this alone [Chorus] Not this time, not this time You don’t get to pull me back in line I’m too alive, I’m feeling fine Turn the page and leave your name behind Not this time—oh, not this time [Verse 2] I changed the lock, I changed the picture Put the hallway back in blue Funny how a little distance Makes the truth come into view My sister called from the corner diner Said, “You sound like you again” I laughed so hard I nearly told her I don’t need to make amends [Pre-Chorus] I was waiting for a sign Now I’m making my own Every step feels right in time I can do this alone [Chorus] Not this time, not this time You don’t get to pull me back in line I’m too alive, I’m feeling fine Turn the page and leave your name behind Not this time—oh, not this time [Bridge] If you knock, I won’t be home If you call, I’ll let it ring I found more in letting go Than you ever gave to me [Final Chorus] Not this time, not this time You don’t get to pull me back in line I’m too alive, I’m feeling fine Turn the page and leave your name behind Not this time—oh, not this time Not this time—this heart is mine [Outro] This heart is mine Not this time
