John Legend’s “This time”: Giving women everywhere false hope!


There’s no doubt that I love me a good jam, especially one that hits home, but this particular song is now just starting to irk me. It’s a song about a guy that runs into his ex- and realizes what a mistake he has made, and that “this time” he’ll be much better to her. Here’s the course:

This time I want it all. This time I want it all.
I’m showing you all the cards. Giving you all my heart.
This time I’ll take the chance, this time I’ll be your man.
I can be all you need. This time it’s all of me.

At any rate this song used to make me feel like a certain someone would show up at my doorstep with flowers, feeling this way…. But then I woke up, and realized that it ain’t gonna happen, and that’s ok! So I guess I take back my previous comment about this song… Thanks for this and many other good jams Mr. Legend!
