This Time Lyrics

Maybe it's the way that the stars are aligned
That's making me feel this way tonight
Maybe it's the words you left unsaid
Maybe it's the stardust in my head

But I wanna tell you
That my heart is busting at the seams, yeah
And I can't wait another minute
Life is short, love is sweet
Ain't no time like this time baby

Maybe it's the way that the night is still
Or the sound of the rain on my windowsill
That's making all the pieces fit
Making it all make perfect sense

But I wanna tell you
That my heart is busting at the seams, yeah
And I can't wait another minute
Life is short, love is sweet
Ain't no time like this time baby

Goes by so fast
Can't get it back
There ain't no time like this time

Yeah I just wanna tell you
That my heart is busting at the seams, yeah
And I can't wait another minute
Life is short, love is sweet
Ain't no time like this time baby

My little baby


Maybe it's the way that the stars are aligned
And there ain't no time
Ain't no time, ain't no time
Ain't no time like this time baby

Oooh, yeah

Maybe it's the way that the night is still
Or the sound of the rain on my windowsill
Yeah, yeah

This song is about how a girl wants to tell her guy that she loves him, and that there's no time like the present. She's not going to wait anything longer.

My Interpretation
Cover art for This Time lyrics by Carrie Underwood

Maybe it's the way that the stars are aligned That's makin' me feel this way tonight Maybe it's the words you left unsaid Maybe it's the stardust in my hand

It seems like he has feelings for her, or perhaps she's just interpreting things that way because she's feeling different tonight for whatever reason.

But I wanna tell ya That my heart is burstin' at the seams, yeah and I can't wait another minute Life is short, love is sweet Ain't no time like this time baby

Perhaps she's just realised she has feelings for him and wants to take that step-- voicing her feelings. Romance is all about timing, after all.

Maybe it's the way that the night is still Or the sound of the rain on my windowsill That's making all the pieces fit Makin' it all make perfect sense

It all seems obvious, now. They were meant to be together. She feels a swell of emotions and thoughts spin around in her head. She wants to run to him right now. She might miss her window if she doesn't seize the moment.
