You can try to be long
But you can't (but you can't)
But you can't (but you can't).
You can try to hang on,
But you can't (but you can't)
But you can't.
Try, try, try
But you know you'll never win,
'Cause I can't give in to you.
You can say that you'll stay
But you can't (but you can't)
But you can't (but you can't).
Turn away, far away,
But you can't (but you can't)
But you can't.
Cry, cry, cry
Till you're down on bended knee
But you know I'll never be with you.
All your lies hypnotized,
But you can't (but you can't)
But you can't (but you can't).
All the while, try to smile.
But you can't (but you can't)
But you can't.
Try, try, try
But you know you'll never win,
'Cause I won't give in to you.
