I Try Lyrics

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
And I'll keep my cool, but I'm fiendin'

I try to say goodbye and I choke
Try to walk away and I stumble
Though I try to hide it, it's clear
My world crumbles when you are not near
Goodbye 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
And I may seem alright and smile when you leave
But my smiles are just a front
Just a front, hey

And I play it off, but I'm dreaming of you
And I'll keep my cool, but I'm fiendin'

I try to say goodbye and I choke (yeah)
Try to walk away and I stumble
Though I try to hide it, it's clear
My world crumbles when you are not near
Goodbye and I choke (yeah)
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
And I'll keep my cool, but I'm fiendin'

I try to say goodbye and I choke (yeah)
Try to walk away and I stumble
Though I try to hide it, it's clear
My world crumbles when you are not near
Goodbye and I choke (yeah, yeah, yeah)
Try to walk away and I stumble (hey, hey, yeah)
Though I try to hide it, it's clear (sick of love)
My world crumbles when you are not near (love, your love, kisses ends)
Goodbye and I choke (goodbye and I choke, yeah)
Try to walk away and I stumble
Though I try to hide it, it's clear
My world crumbles when you are not near

Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah

What is the Meaning of I Try?

This song is like a cup of strong coffee laced with bittersweet chocolate - it's all about the struggle of trying to keep calm and carry on when your heart is in tatters. The lyrics beautifully capture the protagonist's internal turmoil as she tries to mask her yearning for a love that's out of reach. She paints a picture of putting on a brave face, while secretly longing for her beloved's touch. It's an emotional rollercoaster ride, where every step away feels like stumbling, every goodbye chokes her up and her world crumbles without him near. This song is essentially an ode to unrequited love and the agony it brings along. #UnrequitedLove #HeartacheInHarmony
