Next Time
Gonna give up swearing
And these God-damn cigarettes
Pray a little more
Sin a little less
Take the road less traveled
Less winding, more true
These are just a few things that I'll do
Next time
(maybe next time)
Next time
Won't be such a handful
I'll dial things back a bit
More a man of truth
Less a hypocrite
I will spend my time tending fences I must mend
Lord knows I could be a better friend
Next time
(maybe next time)
Next time I'll do better
Just you wait, you'll see (maybe next time)
A wiser man reborn again and living differently
Next time will be the first time
That we don't say goodbye
Two simple words we tell ourselves
"Next time"
(maybe next time)
"Next time"
(Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh)
(Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh)
(Ooh)
If I could do things over
There's choices I would trade
Deeds that I would take back
Words I wouldn't say
With the benefit of hist'ry
And second chance hindsight
I would try like hell
To get "us" right
Next time
Next time I'll do better
Next time you will see (maybe next time)
A wiser man who's born again
And loves you differently
Next time will be the first time
We don't say goodbye
Two simple words we tell ourselves
One simply perfect lie
"Next time" (maybe next time)
"Next time" (maybe next time)
"Next time"
(maybe next time)
And these God-damn cigarettes
Pray a little more
Sin a little less
Take the road less traveled
Less winding, more true
These are just a few things that I'll do
Next time
(maybe next time)
Next time
Won't be such a handful
I'll dial things back a bit
More a man of truth
Less a hypocrite
I will spend my time tending fences I must mend
Lord knows I could be a better friend
Next time
(maybe next time)
Next time I'll do better
Just you wait, you'll see (maybe next time)
A wiser man reborn again and living differently
Next time will be the first time
That we don't say goodbye
Two simple words we tell ourselves
"Next time"
(maybe next time)
"Next time"
(Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh)
(Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh)
(Ooh)
If I could do things over
There's choices I would trade
Deeds that I would take back
Words I wouldn't say
With the benefit of hist'ry
And second chance hindsight
I would try like hell
To get "us" right
Next time
Next time I'll do better
Next time you will see (maybe next time)
A wiser man who's born again
And loves you differently
Next time will be the first time
We don't say goodbye
Two simple words we tell ourselves
One simply perfect lie
"Next time" (maybe next time)
"Next time" (maybe next time)
"Next time"
(maybe next time)
