Maybe This Time (1995)
[Verse 1]
Maybe this time I'll be lucky
Maybe this time she'll stay
Maybe this time, for the first time
Love won't hurry away
She will hold me fast
I'll be home at last
Not a loser anymore
Like the last time and the time before
[Verse 2]
Everybody loves a winner
So nobody loved me
Mr. Peaceful, Mr. Happy
That's what I long to be
All the odds are in my favor
Something's bound to begin
It's gotta happen, happen sometime
Maybe this time I'll win
Everybody, everybody loves a winner
So nobody loved me
Mr. Peaceful, Mr. Happy
That's what I long to be
All the odds are in my favor
Something's bound to begin
It's gotta happen, happen sometime
Maybe this time
Maybe this time I'll win
