THIS TIME WE'RE GONNA COME THROUGH (Robert J. Purvis)


Has it been too long?

Have you changed so much?

Will you still be there?

Is your hair still long?

Do your eyes still smile?

And will you still care?


I've been going 'round and 'round and 'round

But always back to the start

Please take all I have but this time leave my heart


Time itself stood still on that lonely hill

When you turned to go

With the fading light, you walked out of sight

Why, I'll never know


I've been reading all the letters

That you wrote while we were apart

Please take all I have

But this time leave my heart


Ooooh, this time we're gonna come through

Ooooh, this time we're gonna come through


If my words are few, if I'm shy with you

Please don't mind my way

It's just now I feel, this time it's for real

And that you might stay


I've been going 'round and 'round and 'round

But always back to the start

Please take all I have but this time leave my heart


Ooooh, this time we're gonna come through

Ooooh, this time we're gonna come through

Ooooh, this time we're gonna come through

Ooooh, this time we're gonna come through.
