I Try

Macy Gray

Games, changes and fears
When will they go from here?
When will they stop?
I believe that fate has brought us here
And we should be together babe, but we're not

I play it off but I'm dreaming of you
I'll keep my cool but I'm fading

I try to say good-bye and I choke
I try to walk away and I stumble
Though I try to hide it, it's clear
My world crumbles when you are not near
Good-bye and I choke
I try to walk away and I stumble
Though I try to hide it, it's clear
My world crumbles when you are not near

I may appear to be free but I'm just a prisoner of your love
I may seem all right and smile when you leave
But my smiles are just a front, just a front! (hey)

I play it off but I'm dreaming of you
I'll keep my cool but I'm fading

I try to say good-bye and I choke
I try to walk away and I stumble
Though I try to hide it, it's clear
My world crumbles when you are not near
Good-bye and I choke
I try to walk away and I stumble
Though I try to hide it, it's clear
My world crumbles when you are not near

Here is my confession
May I be your possession
Boy I need your touch
Your love kisses and such
With all my might I try but this I can't deny, deny

I play it off but I'm dreaming of you
(But I'm dreaming of you babe)
I'll keep my cool but I'm fading

I try to say good-bye and I choke
I try to walk away and I stumble
Though I try to hide it, it's clear
My world crumbles when you are not near
Good-bye and I choke
I try to walk away and I stumble
Though I try to hide it, it's clear
My world crumbles when you are not near

Good-bye and I choke
I try to walk away and I stumble
Though I try to hide it, it's clear
My world crumbles when you are not near
