This Time Around Will Hoge

[Verse 1]
Looking out this hotel window
Watchin' all of the people
Five o'clock, headin' on back home
My day is just beginnin'
I'm sittin' here thinkin'
I wish I wasn't drinkin' alone

[Pre-Chorus]
I'd rather be in our bed than stuck here with my pride
Always worried 'bout winning, but now I realize

[Chorus]
Sometimes it's hard when you got it
And it's gone when you need it
Sometimes it just can't be found
I know it's hard to believe it
But I can finally see it
I'll be better to you this time around

[Verse 2]
Pick up the phone 'cause I miss you
But I'd rather be with you
Than waiting here pretendin' I'm strong
I can see that you were right
Please let me come home and try
I'm man enough to tell you I was wrong
