From the recording Try Again
Lyrics
Tonight I’m restless
Running ‘round my head
Bed abandoned
I’m in the dark alone and naked
The streetlights stretch the floor
But it’s early in the morning bout 5 am
Lord I’m not the only soul
That's slow to sleep and late to waking
But I’ll do the best I can
To ensure that I can stand
I’ll try
Try again
The sun is risen
The light is more than I can stand
For all I’m given
There’s still so much that I demand
My cup is overflowing
I don't want none anymore
I wanna give in
I don't wanna play no more
To proud yet I’m too poor to say when
But I’ll do the best I can
To ensure that I can stand
I’ll try
Try again
Take your ribbons
And run it through your hair
Clothes of linen
So you fell as light as air
Do your silly chores
Make it out the door and breathe in
Though the sun is beating down
You finally made it out
No more sleeping
And I’ll do the best I can
To ensure that I can stand
I’ll try, I’ll try, I’ll try, Try again
