I Try - Peabo Bryson, Paul Taylor

I try to do the best I can for you

But it seems that it’s not enough

Will you know I care even when you’re not there?

But it’s not what you want

You close your door when I wanna give you more

And I feel, I feel so out of place

And you know it’s true

Don’t you think I’m good enough for you?

Tell me why can’t, why can’t you see that you’re hurting me?

And I want, I want this pain to stop

So if you really care

I mean if you, if you really, really care

Then open up your heart to me

Can you make this pain

Can you make it stop, make it stop?

If you really care, if you really, really care

Then open up your heart to me

Can you open up to me?

You know that I try to be with you

You know that I wanted to see it through

You know that I wanted to make you mine

It was only a matter of time

I try, and I try, and I try, and I try, yeah

You know that I try

You know I try

It’s in the hands of time

It’s all in the hands of time
