This Time [1972 Version]
[Intro]
(This time we're gonna make it)
Woah baby, yeah yeah
(This time I know it's love)
Mmm-hmm-hmm

[Verse 1]
Fallin' in and out of love was our school day game
I remember Billy Jack and Mary Jane
Breakin' each others heart seem to been so much fun
'Cause makin' up was so easily done
But through the years it's heartaches and feels
I learned to love, it's your heart you got to get in

[Chorus]
(This time) We're gonna make it, whoa baby, yeah-yeah
(This time) I know it's love
I know it's love this time baby, yeah
That's why I say

[Verse 2]
This time we gonna make it
Here's our chance, so girl let's take it
'Cause breakin' up is no more just a game
Because the hurt can bring too much pain
So let's take a stance, start makin' plans
You'll be my woman, and I'll be your man, 'cause
[Chorus]
(This time we're gonna make it)
We gonna make it, oh baby, yeah-yeah
(This time) I know it's love
Understand baby, yeah

[Bridge]
You see

[Verse 3]
This time I'll be good
Do anything that a man should
Each night I go to bed, I say a special prayer
"Dear Lord, when I wake, let us still be here"
'long as water it's wet, and fire is hot
I'm gonna give you all the lovin' I got, baby

[Chorus]
This time we gonna make it, oh baby, yeah-yeah
(This time) I know it's love
I know it's love this time, baby

[Refrain]
All we got to do is stay together, honey
(This time we're gonna make it)
I know we can make baby, yes we can
Oh baby, oh baby, oh baby
(This time I know it's love)
All you got to do is believe in me, baby
'Cause I better belive in you
All it take is just a little more, baby-baby-baby
(This time we're gonna make it)
[Outro]
(This time I know it's love)
(This time)
