Can't She Try
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
It's midnight and she's lonely
But it's nothing she can't take
No, it ain't the whispers, that ain't the problem
It's the watching, waiting, hoping, praying while nothing seems to change
She could take another broken heart
She could take another long goodbye
She could fall in love or she could fall apart, that's fine
But can't she try?
She's asking questions into the mirror
The silence that answers, she knows too well
She's holding onto a promise
That what she'll be feeling is worth all she's felt
She could take another broken heart
She could take another long goodbye
She could fall in love or she could fall apart, that's fine
But can't she fall?
Can't she have one little look, that's all
Cause I know she'll get by
She could take another broken heart
She could take another broken heart
She could take another long goodbye
She could fall in love or she could fall apart, that's fine
But can't she try?
