This time

I wont 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
