Carole King - This Time lyrics

rate me

I go through the motions of being with people

When deep in my soul, I want to be where you are

I know we speak every night

But words only go so far, I know

It feels like an ocean of time we're apart

I know that I've said it before

But this time when I come home

I will stay with you

This time's the last time that I'm gonna go

Just close your eyes, and imagine me home again

It isn't so far away

Soon I'll be back, and you'll never be alone again

This time I mean to stay

I promise you this time I'll do whatever it takes

To stay right by your side

I would do anything, I would give you everything

'Cause you are everything to me

But until then

Gotta keep our emotions under control

It won't be easy to do

'Cause all I want to do is kiss you, touch you,

Hold you, love you, promise, I promise

I promise you, I'll stay with you, but till then

Just close your eyes, and imagine me home again

I mean every word I say

Soon I'll be back, and you'll never be alone again

This time I mean to stay

Just close your eyes, and imagine me home again

Soon I will be on my way (never gonna go)

This time I mean it, you'll never be alone again

This time I mean to stay
