Love This Time

I played the game and took my chances
Wasn't under party lights
But an eyeful of laughter
And the dollars worth of dancing

Gets home night after night
And what's a girl to do when she needs somebody
To take her home and tell her sweet lies
All I want to do is find me somebody too

I need to know that it's love this time
Don't want to spend me whole life trying
I need to know, I need to know
That it's love this time

I need to know that you'll stay with me
I want to know that you'll never leave
I need to know that it's love this time

My mama told me not to talk to strangers
She said I'll only get used
But a one night affair is worth all the dangers
To keep from having these blues

I get so tired of playing game
Those cold gray dawns and forgotten names
'Cause all I want to do
Is find me somebody too

I need to know that you'll stay with me
I want to know that you'll never leave
I need to know that it's love this time
