We keep circling Same old story in the coffee cup You say “Maybe this is how we grow up” We were lightning in a rent free room Now it’s calendars and traffic jams But your knee still bumps into mine Like it’s asking if I’d run again This is likewise a charm kind of almost We crash We burn Then we’re back at the start You draw a heart in the fog on the window Ask if I’m in While you’re falling apart We only meet in the middle when it’s dark Third time’s a charm Or is it just who we are You still talk about that train we missed How we laughed instead of getting mad Say you’re tired of the might-have-beens But your eyes still live in the past You say “Promise me we’ll get it right” Then you underline the word “try” On a napkin that you fold in half Tuck it deep into your coat alive This is the third time’s a charm kind of almost We crash We burn Then we’re back at the start You draw a heart in the fog on the window Ask if I’m in While you’re falling apart We only meet in the middle when it’s dark Third time’s a charm Or is it just who we are Maybe love is just returning To the place we chose to stay Every version that we ruined Still keeps saving us a place (oh) This is the third time’s a charm kind of almost We crash We burn Then we’re back at the start You trace my name in the fog on the window Laugh through a tear Say you’re guarding your heart We only meet in the middle when it’s dark Third time’s a charm <V5.5> <Lyrics upload, art upload, prompts: F©REII 14-04-2026>
