[Verse 1]
I'm not afraid of lions, tigers or bears
The world could be ending and I wouldn't care
I don't scream in a haunted house, got my hands up on a roller coaster
But when I'm in a room with you, I get scared
[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause your hands are patient
Your smile is kind
You talk to me like we could have our whole lives
And it wouldn't be enough
I don't wanna mess it up
This time
[Chorus]
This time
I don't wanna be the one to walk away
I don't wanna be the one to slam the brakes
This time I wanna
See what happens if I stay
This time, this time
[Verse 2]
I don’t wanna do the same thing I’ve done before
Let you in then push you out and lock the door
What if I call you mine and then I change my mind
And why am I terrified
When you look me in the eyes?
[Pre-Chorus]
When your hands are patient
Your smile is kind
You talk to me like we could have our whole lives
And it wouldn’t be enough
I don’t wanna mess it up
This time
[Chorus]
This time
I don’t wanna, be the one to walk away
I don’t wanna, be the one to slam the brakes
This time I wanna
See what happens if I stay
This time, this time
[Post-Chorus]
I don’t wanna, I, I don’t wanna
I don’t wanna, I, I don’t wanna
I don’t wanna, I, I don’t wanna
I don’t wanna, I, I don’t wanna
[Bridge]
I don’t wanna, be the one to call it off
Cause I think ya, could be someone that I want
This time, this time
[Chorus]
This time
I don’t wanna, be the one to walk away, no
I don’t wanna, be the one to slam the brakes
This time I wanna
See what happens if I stay
This time, this time, this time
