TRY
(Deborah Gibson)

Yes, I know you’re strong
I’ve seen all you can take
But it’s wrong, even strong men get weak
Even steel can break, even steel can break

I know you know your weakest points, baby
But you never want to change
You can never be more than just satisfied
if you stay within safe range

Try, why don’t we try a little harder
to let the good outnumber the bad
Cry, must I, must I cry any longer
Can we try anymore
Am I worth it after all we’ve shared

Yes, you make people laugh, but soon
every clown must go home to his empty room
You’re not truly happy playing the fool
but can’t you see the fool is you, if you don’t

Try, why don’t we try a little harder
to let the good outnumber the bad
Cry, must I cry, must I cry any longer
Can we try anymore
Am I worth it after all

We know these things can’t take away
know the pain can’t be denied
For every man who ever rose and flew
there was a man who cried
Even preachers must pray
Even salesmen buy
Do what’s right for you
Oh darling, all you can do is try

Must I, must I cry any longer
Can we try anymore
Am I worth it anymore

Try, why don’t we try a little harder
to let the good outnumber the bad
Cry, must I, must I cry any longer
Can we try anymore
Can we try again
Try again
