Marie Wilson - Next Time lyrics

(Marie Wilson/Mark Hudson/Jim Vallance)

I heard you knocking on my front door

I know what you wanted to say.

I found the letter you left lying there

I threw it away.

What do you take me for

Some kind of stupid fool

I never asked for much

I only wanted you.

Now I just wanna say, baby

If this is goodbye

Well, it's your turn to cry

Next time

Things will be different, baby

Next time

Everything is gonna change

Next time

Won't be so easy

I swear to God there will never be a next time

I'm not the person I was yesterday

When I wanted you near

There's a part of me that's gone away

Now I see it so clear

What do you want from me

Do you take me for a fool?

Don't wanna live a lie

I only want the truth

Now it's my turn to say baby

If that's the way you treat a friend

This is the end

Next time

Things will be different, baby

Next time

Everything is gonna change

Next time

Won't be so easy

I swear to God there will never be a next time

I finally figured it out

What you're all about

And I think it's a crime

I was wasting my time

Yeah, yeah, yeah

What do you take me for?

Some kind of stupid fool

There ain't no in between

It's only win or lose

Now I just gotta say baby

I'm gonna find somebody new

And it ain't you

Chorus to fade
