it's getting colder in this ditch where i lie i'm feelin older and i'm wonderin why i heard they told her it was tell and live or die i didn't know here but i know tell why she lied
((repeat)) you can't say i didn't give it i won't wait another minute we're on our way this time around you can't say i didn't give it i won't wait another minute we're on our way this time around and we won't go down
i heard them say that dreams should stay in your head well i feel ashamed of the things that i've said put on these chains and you can live a free life well i'd rather bleed just to know why i die
((repeat))
all i know is that fear has got to go this time around this time around i've started feelin like i don't want to fight give in to the given and put out the light cannons a blazin shower these moonlit skies then i remember and i know why he died do you know why i die

Hanson - This time around
2집 This Tome Around는
분명 1집의 그것을 완전히 넘어섰으며
음악적으로 그들 자신이 한단계 진화했음을 알리는 명반이었다.
하지만 상업지에서의 쓴 실패는
핸슨 자신들에게
차후에 쓴 꼬리표를 남기게 된다.
바로 소포어의 징크스의 또한번의 희생양..
하지만
핸슨 자신들이 2집 활동을 마감하고
머큐리레이블을 나오는 순간
그간 침묵했던
많은 로커진들은
그들에게 갑작스리우만큼
환호를 본낸다.
이유인 즉슨 당시 2집의 타이틀 트랙인
이곡
This Time Around의 부진으로
머큐리측의 강압에 의해
If Only로 불과 한달도 안되 선회한 것에 의해
많은 팬들은 실망했었는데
그런 머큐리를 뛰쳐나온
핸슨의 용기와
침묵했던
This Time Around의 음악성에
찬사를 보낸것이다.
그리고
이 곡은
롤링스톤의 필자로 부터 이런 찬사를 받는다.
"빌보드의 정상에 서야 위대한 곡은 아니다.
그것은 이미 핸슨의 This Time Around로 명확해졌다.
이 곡이야 말로 올해 많은 록 팬들을 하나로 묶은
위대한 곡이라는 생각이 든다."
