Lyrics

0:10I try to hold you

0:14But I know I can't win

0:19I try to catch you

0:24But you run time and time again yeah

0:29I try to please you

0:34With the things that I say

0:39But when I speak your name

0:43It sounds like a ball and chain because

0:49Home's not a place where

0:53You can stay and grow small again no

0:59You've got to move on

1:03'Cause home's not a place at all

1:08It's not a place yeah mmm

1:18I try to hold you

1:22But I know I can't win

1:28I try to find your love

1:32But you hide in a different place again

1:38I try to please you

1:42With the things that I say

1:47But when I speak your name

1:52Just sounds like a ball and chain because

1:57Love is like a song

2:02When it's done

2:03And the last notes have rung

2:07All that's left is silence

2:11And that's when you move on so

2:17No reason for tears

2:21No need for these chains

2:26When one toy is broken

2:31You find another game

2:35And I'll try yeah

2:44Oh yeah I try

2:50Oh yeah

2:51I try

2:54Ooh baby I try

2:58Yeah

I try to hold you
But I know I can't win
I try to catch you
But you run time and time again yeah
I try to please you
With the things that I say
But when I speak your name
It sounds like a ball and chain because
Home's not a place where
You can stay and grow small again no
You've got to move on
'Cause home's not a place at all
It's not a place yeah mmm
I try to hold you
But I know I can't win
I try to find your love
But you hide in a different place again
I try to please you
With the things that I say
But when I speak your name
Just sounds like a ball and chain because
Love is like a song
When it's done
And the last notes have rung
All that's left is silence
And that's when you move on so
No reason for tears
No need for these chains
When one toy is broken
You find another game
And I'll try yeah
Oh yeah I try
Oh yeah
I try
Ooh baby I try
Yeah
