Lyrics of
Next Time Around

1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 +
Pre-Chorus, this is a simplified pattern, it's hard to tell exactly what she does in the recordings.
1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 +
Verse
City livin's mighty close
I wanna know what I can't know
I've seen you from across the street
Chances are we'll never meet
Pre-Chorus
But oh when I fall I fall good and I fall hard
Can't tell between what I need and what I want, want
Goodbye sunshine
I see straight to the heart of it
We slide right by
then go back to the start of it
Maybe we'll get even closer the next time around
Verse
One day you might grab a seat
On the empty barstool next to me
Or you'll drop your books and I'll pick em up
When you hand em back our fingers touch
But oh when I fall I fall good and I fall hard
Can't tell between what I need and what I want
Goodbye sunshine
I see straight to the heart of it
We slide right by
then go back to the start of it
Maybe we'll get even closer the next time around
Maybe we'll get even closer the next time around
Verse
As I lay me down to sleep
I pray that I might dream so deep
For all the things that might have been
Or right now might be happening
But oh when I fall I fall good and I fall hard
Can't tell between what I need and what I want
Goodbye sunshine
I see straight to the heart of it
We slide right by
then go back to the start of it
Maybe we'll get even closer the next time around
Maybe we'll get even closer the next time around
