Get It Right The First Time

[Verse 1] I don't believe in first impressions For just this once I hope that looks don't deceive I ain't got time for true confessions [Pre-Chorus 1] Got to make the move right now Got to meet that girl somehow [Chorus] Get it right the first time That's the main thing I can't afford to let it pass You get it right the next time That's not the same thing Gonna have to make the first time last [Verse 2] I'm not much good at conversation I never was too smooth at comin' on real strong If all it takes is inspiration [Pre-Chorus 2] Then I might have just what it takes If I don't make no bad mistakes And I [Chorus] [Bridge] I might find the courage Yeah I might get up the nerve But if my timing ain't just right what purpose would it serve? I don't know, I don't know, I don't know How to say those first few words If I want to put myself in touch The first few moments mean so much [Verse 3] So I suppose it's now or never Before that woman walks right out of my life Just let me pull myself together [Pre-Chorus 3] I've got to give it one good try Gotta take my chance tonight [Chorus]
