Maybe This Time

I'm dressing dark again today
Just a little more black again to hide some things I hate
It never does me any good anyway to wear colors brighter than I feel

Hold on, the mirror says I need a little more
Just a little more powder there to hide the insecure
No other color on my lips or my eyes
can tell the truth of what I feel inside

I wanna wake up today
Take a look in the mirror
And maybe see things much clearer than yesterday
Maybe this time
After all of my wishin'
I'll find the girl that's been missin'
Maybe this time
ooh ooh
Maybe this time
ooh ooh
Maybe this time

I'm well aware that it comes and it goes
That cold loneliness behind every door I close
So I wait and I wait
'til a reason to smile makes the waiting worthwhile
And the darkness gets carried away... and away!

I wanna wake up today
Take a look in the mirror
And maybe see things much clearer than yesterday
Maybe this time
After all of my wishin'
I'll find the girl that's been missin'
Maybe this time
ooh ooh
Maybe this time
ooh ooh
Maybe this time, I can shine, clearly see through the fog in the mirror
And maybe this time, it's my time oh oh
Maybe this time
Maybe this time I can look in the mirror and say
"you look pretty today"
