Different This Time
This spot, this spot
It’s all for you
And even if you don’t come tonight
It’s still for you

My eyes, these eyes, these days
I got for you
And even if I don’t get to see you
I’m envisioning all kinds of things

I stand by my reason
For wanting you
It may sound simple
But for me, it’s new

I wanna do right by you
I wanna tend to your wounds
I am interested
In a love that soothes
‘Cause I’ve been through some rounds before
When my heart was hungering for
Love I couldn’t let through
Baby, baby, baby
I want it to be different with you

(Whistle solo)
I stand by my reason
For wanting you
It may sound simple
But for me, it’s new

However long we shall be
Listen to me
I won’t make a fool of you darling
I’ve been the one to lose my time
In the smile of a lie
I’m not looking behind
Baby, I want it to be
Different this time
This time
