This Time (Addison) Seems like this year the winter came early Sunny on Sunday and Monday the snow starts to fly The world's on the mend This time last year you were almost despairing Trying to make sense of a world beyond caring And I fell in love with you then This time you won't have to walk away Won't have to run away No one will drive you away baby this time December is always a hard month to handle When you live by the light of a flickering candle And there's nothing but winter ahead The season has always so much to remind you Of all the promises broken behind you But try to look to the future instead This time you won't have to walk away Won't have to run away No one will drive you away baby this time This time you won't have to search for a reason Or try to explain to your father why it didn't work out This time This time there won't be weeks where you wonder How can I sleep in the same bed Or the best friends who talk of the pressure you're under But won't meet your eye when you see them You never forget the sensation of falling You strain for a sound but no one is calling you near And you're suddenly free This winter won't be as hard as the last one The weather man says we're in for a fast one this year And you're here with me, and I want you to be This time you won't have to walk away Won't have to run away No one will drive you away baby this time This time you won't have to search for a reason Or try to explain to your father why it didn't work out This time
