Not This Time

I shouldn't have come to where I am
But here I am, with you, regardless
And the familiar feel of your hand
Like then, it's now leaving me breathless

Somewhere in time I do remember
Faded hurts and moving on
But one ache has become another
This time I won't leave until it's gone

Chorus 1:
I'm afraid, but I want more
The fear of being hurt won't stop me now
It always has before
Not this time; not now
Consequences in my mind?
Not this time

Bridge:
I could bring up how you hurt me
How I'm afraid you will again
I could mention our families
How this will be hurting them
I've always walked the line
Tended every soul but mine
Not this time

Chorus 2:
I'm scared but I need more
I'm throwing caution to the wind now
It's always held me back before
Not this time; not now
Forfeit what I need to find?
Not this time
