Next Time

Barenaked Ladies

You can always get it right next time, next time
You can always get it right next time
You can always get it right next time, next time
You can always get it right next time

You can count on me to mess it up
You can count on me to let you down again
And in time you'll see that I'm your only friend

You can always get it right next time, next time
You can always get it right next time
You can always get it right next time, next time

Comfort in community obliterated
Given opportunity, I hesitated
Even my humility's humiliated

You can always get it right next time, next time
You can always get it right next time
You can always get it right next time, next time
You can always get it right next time

Next time, next time

When you die they make a list
Of every love you never kissed
Of each regret and each mistake
Every choice you fail to make
Oh well, oh well, oh well

It's a shame I have to wait until the ending
Everything I've yet to break is surely bending
Every vow I ever take is just pretending
That this mess I make is worth defending

You can always get it right next time, next time
You can always get it right next time
You can always get it right next time, next time (you can always get it right next time)
You can always get it right next time (you can always get it right)

You can always get it right (you can always get it right)
You can always get it right
You can always get it right next time
