Kimberly Akimbo - This Time Lyrics

2022 Broadway
Kimberly Akimbo the Musical - This Time Lyrics


Music by Jeanine Tesori and lyrics by David Lindsay-Abaire.

BUDDY:
Do you remember what you said?
How you hated me and wished I was dead
That you hoped I'd drive off the road
Then I'd hit a tree, and my car would explode
Well, I thought to myself
That can't be good for a daughter to say
And I thought to myself
I should do this another way

KIMBERLY:
Maybe this time
Maybe this time
After all the lies
After all the beer
Maybe he can change
Maybe he's sincere
Maybe
This time

PATTIE:
Do you remember what you said?
How I reminded you of that story you rеad
And at first, I felt kind of thrilled
'Til you explainеd who Medea had killed
Well, I thought to myself
That can't be good for a daughter to say
And I thought to myself
I should do this another way

KIMBERLY:
Maybe this time
Maybe this time
After all the hurt
Maybe there's a twist
Maybe she won't be a narcissist
I want to believe them
I want to believe
This time
I will believe

This time
Oh, this time
Oh, this time
I put aside the doubt
This time
Oh, this time
Oh, this time
Maybe things work out

DEBRA:
This time
Oh, this time
This time
The dead ends will end

SETH & DEBRA:
This time. This time
Oh, this time. This time
Oh

BOTH:
This time

SETH:
I think I found a friend

SHOW CHOIR:
It's Friday night in Bergen County
There are parties everywhere
And we finally got invited!

ALL:
This time
Oh this time
Oh this time
A better life begins
It's Friday night in Bergen County.
This time
There are parties everywhere.
This time
This time
Everybody wins
This time
We won't implode
This time

KIMBERLY:
We hit the road

ALL:
This time

BUDDY and PATTIE:
We'll stay on track

ALL:
This time

SETH:
My voice won't crack

ALL:
This time

SHOW CHOIR:
We take the prize

ALL:
This time

DEBRA:
Nobody dies
Not like the other time

ALL:
This time
Oh, this time
Oh, this time
No one breaks your heart
This time
This time
Oh, this time
This time, this time
Oh
This time

KIMBERLY:
Nothing falls apart

BUDDY (spoken):
Make a wish!

KIMBERLY:
I will believe

ALL:
This time
