Try Again

She started coming down
She's high up in airplane
Descending on our town
And I, I let my vision blur
The lights reminded me of her
And the way I let her down

But I'm getting older
And I know that nothing's changed
I've got to let her go
And the truth is I'm better off alone
No sense in dragging someone else along
And I know that she knows

She said, you'll lie wide awake at night
Thinking about the battle between you
And I know it's not about who wins
Sometimes it's better to give in
You've got to learn to try again

I'm taking to the road
The desert looks so desolate
As I'm reaching for the phone
And this static reappears
This signal's keeping me from her
And what she needs to hear

Oh but time's passing slowly
I'm so lonely without her
She's absent from my world
And the truth is I'm better off alone
No sense in dragging someone else along
And I know that she knows

She said, you'll lie wide awake at night
Thinking about the battle between you
And I know it's not about who wins
Sometimes it's better to give in
You've got to learn to try again

Come, come on, oh, ooh, ooh
Come, come on, oh

You'll lie wide awake at night
Just thinking about the battle between you
And I know it's not about who wins
Sometimes it's better to give in

I lie wide awake at night
Thinking about the battle between you
And I know it's not about who wins
Sometimes it's better to give in

You've got to learn to try again
Oh, sometimes it's better to give in, oh, oh
I lie wide awake at night
Sometimes it's better to give in
You've got to learn to try again
