lyrics

ONE MORE TRY

ON YOUR MARKS, GET READY, HERE WE GO
SURE THAT ALL OUR DUCKS ARE IN A ROW
SINGING FROM ONE HYMN SHEET, ONE AND ALL
GUARANTEED TO NEVER FAIL OR FALL

I MADE A MISTAKE
NOW I PAY THE PRICE
THE CHILL WIND OF REPENTANCE
COLD AND SO PRECISE
BUT MY HEART IS KINDLED
WITH THE LOVE OF DAYS GONE BY
SO WHY CAN'T WE GIVE IT ONE MORE TRY

TWENTY YEARS AND NEVER ONCE A FIGHT
TUNNEL VISION HEADING TOWARDS THE LIGHT
NEVER SWEAT THE SMALL STUFF SO THEY SAY
BUT LITTLE THINGS CAN SOMETIMES SAVE THE DAY

BANISHED TO THE FRINGE OF EACH OTHER'S LIVES
NO AMOUNT OF CRYING
CAN MAKE A WRONG SOUND RIGHT
BUT I'LL WAIT FOREVER
TILL EVENTUALLY YOU'LL SAY.......AND SIGH
CAN'T WE GIVE IT ONE MORE TRY

AND I WAIT BUT THE PHONE NEVER RINGS
AND IT'S NOT WHAT MY POOR HEART DESIRES
STARE AND I STARE BUT THE POSTMAN WALKS BY
AND HIS WHISTLING IS NOT WHAT'S REQUIRED

GIVE IT ONE MORE TRY
