Next Time from Be Great by Chris Lambert

Carry on
I'm gonna work on a list of regrets
and things I've let slip by
I'll write 'em down
I'll feel better when they're read out loud
so I speak then I hear then I try

So I speak then I hear

I would have liked to be a father
with patience and pay
and a few favorite phrases to say
I'm holding off
I'm hanging on for the right time to move
It makes sense to be safe and delay

For tomorrow or ten years away

I'll save it for the next time around
I'm hanging from a necktie
I'll save it for the next time around

I've been sleeping in direct light of your eyes

Carry on
I'm working off of a list of events
and the things that I still might do
I'm freaking out
I read a thing that said the bees are dying off
and if the bees go, then we go too

If the bees go, then we go

I would have liked to be a writer
with stories to tell
and a best-selling book by now
I would like to put a shitload of savings away
and get back into shape one day

I was never in shape anyway

I'll save it for the next time around
I'm hanging from a necktie
I'll save it for the next time around

I've been sleeping in direct light of your eyes
I'll save it for the next time I'm alive

I'll save it for the next time around
They've got me hanging from a necktie
(I'm hanging by)
I'll save it for the next time around

I've been sleeping in direct light of your eyes
I'll save it for the next time I'm alive

I'll have two kids and a house by 25
Just maybe on the next time I'm alive
