"This Time" lyrics - TRACY CHAPMAN

This time
I won't show I'm vulnerable
This time
I won't give in first
This time
I will hold out with my love
This time
I will not be hurt

I'm gonna love myself
More than anyone else
I'm gonna treat me right
I'm gonna make you say
That you love me first
And you'll be the one
With the most to lose tonight

This time
I'm gonna keep my heart locked safe inside
This time
I'm gonna be the one
To win your love
Your affection
To hide my fear of rejection
This time
