Not This Time by Bob Atkinson

and it happened to you
this thing of lost love
I was feelin’ sorry
for all the above

sat to think
with a cold cold drink
pondered over you
and all of your moans

what I should feel
and if I should hold you
how I came to deal with it
and if I was cold fish

can I take you home
and give you some love?
make you smile
with a wiggle and a hug?

bring you peace of mind?
no
not this time

bring you peace of mind?
oh no 
not this time

not this time
don't really care
have other problems
that I'm aware

no need to bother
with others' despair
not that I don't love you
I just won't care


said I should try
to give you a hand
gettin' over sorrow
of some other man

doesn't interest me
what caused you this pain
tuff lucky honey
it's not my game

sat to think 
with a cold cold cold drink
pondered over you
and all of your moans

what I should feel 
and if I should hold you
how I came to deal with it
and if I was cold fish

can I take you home
and give you some love?
make you smile 
with a wiggle and a hug?

bring you peace of mind?
oh no 
not this time

bring you peace of mind?
no 
not this time
