Better Than Ezra - This Time

Copied!edit Lyrics
original text at lyrnow.com/1993506
After all the empty starts and beautiful illusions
How can I be sure you're even here
Maybe I'm too cynical to fall until it's proven
Or maybe you're my year after year

Tell me you're in
Tell me I'm home
Promise you'll stay, don't let me go
I'm waiting for a sign
So tell me that it's real this time

Open up the curtains, yeah
Clear off all the tables
I'm hoping we can change my history
'Cause who am I to recognize the truth from a fable
When you're the one I'm wanting to believe

Tell me you're in
Tell me I'm home
Promise you'll stay, don't let me go
I'm waiting for a sign
So tell me that it's real this time

Make it true
Kill this doubt
'Cause from such heights it's a long way down
Break my fall
Catch me now
See Better Than Ezra LiveGet tickets as low as $29Tell me you're in
Tell me I'm home
Promise you'll stay don't let me go
I'm waiting on a sign
Tell me it's real this time
I'm waiting for a sign
I need to know it's real this time

Biography

edit bio
Better than Ezra is a college rock group in the literal sense – it was formed by four students at Louisiana State University in 1988. Two of those four – Kevin Griffin (vocals and guitar) & Tom Drummond (bass guitar) – have been the constant core of the group. The third, guitarist Joel Rundell, died before the group signed its first recording contract. The fourth, drummer Cary Bonnecaze, left the group acrimoniously after their first major-label album went platinum.

Griffin and Drummond decided to keep Better than Ezra going by hiring a new guitarist/keyboardist, James Arthur Payne Jr., and a new drummer, Travis McNabb. McNabb left on good terms in 2009, and Michael Jerome took over the drums.
