Lyrics for This Time For Real

Feels a little like I mighta died, yeah I've been thinking 'bout a paradise Now I'm getting into something new Sing it Waking up inside a better life (ah, ooh) With a little bit o', 'ooh that's nice' Yeah, you got me feeling so brand new (This time for real) And the clock keeps ticking But I'm going too fast (this time for real) I don't know if it's real, baby I don't know what'll last (this time for real) When I feel like living Don't wanna live in the past (this time for real) I can be my own second chance This time for real I don't want nothing for it I'll be the one you wanted This time for real I don't want nothing for it I'll be the one you wanted Probably shouldn't but I think I might I been thinking 'bout it all damn night Ah, whoo (ah, ooh) If you let it, it could feel just right Come on, baby, we could feel alright Before I die This time for real I don't want nothing for it I'll be the one you wanted This time for real I don't want nothing for it I'll be the one you wanted This time for real I don't want nothing for it I'll be the one you wanted This time for real I don't want nothing for it I'll be the one you wanted
