Lyrics Get It Right This Time - Andy White

Dreamed I was back in Belfast
Drinking on the roof of the writers' bar
Kneeling down before the cathedral
Lying on my back making me see stars

Piano player's getting nervous
You were leaning on a chair
Long black dress open to the waist
You were busy curling up your hair

It's so easy to get distracted
It's so hard to cross the line
I dream of other places
I'll get it right this time
Get it right this time

The guitarist's going crazy
He's drinking vodka by the glass
The record store owner telling stories
Ah the time goes by too fast

You took a present from your pocket
With a smile you offered it to me
We were laughing in the evening rain
Not two miles from the sea

It's so easy to get distracted
It's so hard to cross the line
I dream of other women
I'll get it right this time
I'll get it right this time

Took a walk down by the cinema
All along the Dublin Road
Where I first met Maria
And the cars were all set to explode

Joined up with a demonstration
Heading for the centre of town
Banners screaming 'No'
Couldn't wait for the curtain to come down

It's so easy to get distracted
It's so hard to cross the line
I dreamed that night of justice
We'll get it right this time
We'll get it right this time

Get it right this time

Caught a taxi on the corner
Beneath the smashed street light
Took off into the distance
Of the holy Belfast night

Get it right this time
