first time around - sophia james lyrics

[verse 1]
thomas was famous for failing at making a lightbulb
with ten thousand blueprints obstructing his path to success
and i’ll never know if his efforts were caring or spiteful
but something inside him kept pleading, “keep trying again”

[pre*chorus]
i guess that it’s better
i’m not an inventor
’cause i would’ve said it’s no good after fail number ten
[chorus]
and i can’t get my feet up off the ground
climbing up that mountain wears me down
time’s moving faster and patience is fading
and i’ll never last if you want me to make it
the first time around

[verse 2]
the river that carved the grand canyon was not any different
watеr won’t cut through a rock on the first day of tries
give it somе time and some sp*ce, and a little persistence
and watch as the tourists come flooding to take in the sights

[pre*chorus]
what i would give to be
part of that river
’cause maybe it’d finally teach me to stick to the fight

[chorus]
but i can’t get my feet up off the ground
swimming through that ocean wears me down
time’s moving faster and patience is fading
and i’ll never last if you want me to make it
the first time around

[verse 3]
i’m sorry i couldn’t keep fighting to keep us together
i’m sorry i quit on our love long before it was through
but you deserve someone who might follow through off a river
’cause what good are lightbulbs when you’re the one lighting them
[chorus]
and i can’t get my feet up off the ground
and i don’t want to ever bring you down
ah, time’s moving faster and patience is fading
and i’ll never last if you want me to make it
the first time around
(the first time around)

[outro]
and maybe someday we can try it again
but for now, until then, we’re just not going to make it
the first time around
