[Chorus]
I'm gonna try
Try like a mother, I'll make this one come around
Sing all through the night
Shaking the shutters, I know she'll be coming down
Hear the neighbors calling out names, well, I can't put up with that
So I'm gonna try
Try 'til I get it back

[Verse 1]
You don't know what she means to me
My reality and my fantasy
On the wave of confidence and gin
Like a hurricane, I come crashing in
But oh, man, this thing is moving too slow
Damn, I think I'm losing control
'Cause I just took a flight
To make it here tonight to say that I

[Chorus]
I'm gonna try
Try like a mother, I'll make this one come around
Sing all through the night
Shaking the shutters, I know she'll be coming down
Hear the neighbors calling out names, well, I can't put up with that
So I'm gonna try
Try 'til I get it back
[Verse 2]
Listen, I'ma tell you once
From an honest guy, who has screwed it up
Celebrate the one you're with
A little take and give never hurt no one
But oh, now I'm standing out in the cold
Trying to find the heart that got stole
'Cause I just took a flight
To make it here tonight to say that I

[Chorus]
I'm gonna try
Try like a mother, I'll make this one come around
Sing all through the night
Shaking the shutters, I know she'll be coming down
Hear the neighbors calling out names, well, I can't put up with that
So I'm gonna try
Try 'til I get it back

[Bridge]
If she placed a bet on all
The chances that you'll waste and until then
Would you be standing?

[Chorus]
I'm gonna try
Try like a mother, I'll make this one come around
Sing all through the night
Shaking the shutters, I know she'll be coming down
I'm gonna try
Try like a mother, I'll make this one come around
Sing all through the night
Shaking the shutters, I know she'll be coming down
Hear the neighbors calling out names, well, I can't put up with that
So I'm gonna try
Try 'til I get it back
