Next Time Lyrics by The Author (Singer)

2019

[Intro]
Next time, next time, next time

[Verse 1]
Yea, and when that hotline bling (line bling)
I know to hit reject, cuz unless
God says something different
We ain't going to that next, level
You was nothing but treble (treble)
Drama so high causing nothing but trouble (trouble)
It's cool though (cool), I ain't perfect either
Relationships take two like a coupe
But you stayed fixed not to change like the roof
So I converted from the bull
Slid back, sped off *skrrrr*
Cuz I need a P31 girl, (I need a real man)
Honestly we were moving too fast
And real talk you treated me real bad
Had to move on, still praying for ya
Maybe Next Lifetime like Eryka, I don't know
Still asking God about it
But love is a choice and I wanna be wise about it, yea

[Chorus]
Maybe next time we'll make it work
Maybe next time we'll do things different
Maybe next time around you'll learn
Maybe next time around you'll listen
And recognize my worth, spend time and put me first
You had a thousand second chances
Maybe next time, next time, next time

[Hook]
Next time (time)
Next time (time), next time (time)
Next time (time, next time (time)
Next time (time), next time

[Verse 2]
Sorry ain't sorry what it feels like
Spoke words too soon, actions came back to bite, wow
Emotions tied to the soul, man
Did what we did now there's pain when we gotta let it go
Should have known better, that's a setup for failure
Should have done better as a man (man)
Stick to the plan, avoid situations having us losing friends
Consequences of sin, I just want my friend back
Going Halfcrazy, R & B throwback, wow
Need loyalty, loyalty, loyalty
If we wanna be royalty royalty royalty
King and queen was the vision that we had but
Will you now be a ghost in my past
The heart changes, loves changes
Best friends become strangers

[Chorus]
Maybe next time we'll make it work (work)
Maybe next time we'll do things different
Maybe next time around you'll learn (learn)
Maybe next time around you'll listen
And recognize my worth, spend time and put me first
You had a thousand second chances
Maybe next time, next time, next time

[Hook]
Next time (time)
Next time (time), next time (time)
Next time (time, next time (time)
Next time (time), next time

[Bridge]
Maybe next time around you'll learn
Maybe next time around you'll listen
And recognize my worth, spend time and put me first
You had a thousand second chances
Maybe next time, next time, next time

[Chorus]
Maybe next time we'll make it work (work)
Maybe next time we'll do things different
Maybe next time around you'll learn (learn)
Maybe next time around you'll listen
And recognize my worth, spend time and put me first
You had a thousand second chances
Maybe next time, next time, next time

[Hook]
Next time (time)
Next time (time), next time (time)
Next time (time, next time (time)
Next time (time), next time
