Lyrics Kina Grannis – Next Time
Text:
Well I believe in a land
A land where fairy tales await
Kisses hang on hooks like bait
And swing slowly back and forth
This land in which I’m speaking of
Houses such hatred, grief and love
So many wild and crazy things
Emotions you would never dream of
Yet they’re tearing through
Your burdened heart, your soaking eyes
And I think it’s time
I realized the strange reality
That this life, this land
Is here and now and this person is me
But I’m not gonna waste this moment next time
Now when the night has found its end
You’re sitting with that special friend
A pause, it drifts between then and your departure
Don’t walk away, that’s unwanted space
Lingering between you and the other
Move in, move in, move in for the kill
And I think it’s time
I realized the strange reality
That this life, this land
Is here and now and this person is me
You will not forgive yourself
You will not move gracefully forward, no
You will dwell, oh will you ever
It’s hell, let me tell you, oh
No, I will never waste this moment
Said I will not waste this moment next time, no
