Try Again

Raheem DeVaughn


I thought 
I'd hear your voice 
(Hello, hello, hello) 
But instead the operator 
Says your number's changed
My apologies 
(My apologies)
Please forgive me please
For I've been selfish 
And I'm to blame 
If I could reverse the years 
(If I could reverse the years) 
To take back all the tears
I'd rewrite the screenplay
But life don't work that way 
(What you mean it 
Don't work that way?)
So lonely here I lay
Wishing you 
Was still my lady

Chorus: 
When it's not easy 
To walk away 
(Try, try, try, try again)
When you don't really mean 
What you say 
(Try, try, try, try again)
When you feel incomplete
Don't you go losing sleep
I think you 
Should try again
Can we try again? 
Try again 

The perfume 
You used to wear 
(The sweet perfume 
you used to wear)

Sometimes 
I smell it in the air
And do a double take
And sometimes 
I play your song 
(Sometimes I play your song)
Just to dance along
Just to cut the pain
Please forget me not 
(Don't forget, don't forget 
Don't forget, don't forget me)
If ever you should tie the knot 
Or just find somebody new
I hope this rights 
The wrongs that I've done
See I composed this song
Cause it's hell without you

(Chorus)

See winter's 
Too cold without you
Summer too lonely 
Without you
And I can't stop 
Thinking about you
Can we try again?

Oh, fall 
That's when we met
Spring it was times 
I can't forget 
My Cinderella 
My Juliet
Can we try again?
