Macy Gray — I Try

[Verse 1] Games, changes and fears When will they go from here? When will they stop? I believe that fate has brought us here And we should be together, babe But we're not [Pre-Chorus] I play it off, but I'm dreaming of you And I'll keep my cool, but I'm feigning [Chorus] I try to say goodbye and I choke I try to walk away and I stumble Though I try to hide it, it's clear My world crumbles when you are not near Goodbye and I choke I try to walk away and I stumble Though I try to hide it, it's clear My world crumbles when you are not near [Verse 2] I may appear to be free But I'm just a prisoner of your love And I may seem alright and smile when you leave But my smiles are just a front Just a front, hey! [Pre-Chorus] I play it off, but I'm dreaming of you And I'll keep my cool, but I'm feigning [Chorus] I try to say goodbye and I choke (Yeah) I try to walk away and I stumble Though I try to hide it, it's clear My world crumbles when you are not near Goodbye and I choke (Yeah!) I try to walk away and I stumble Though I try to hide it, it's clear My world crumbles when you are not near [Bridge] Here is my confession May I be your possession? Boy, I need your touch Your love, kisses, and such With all my might, I try But this I can't deny Deny [Pre-Chorus] I play it off, but I'm dreaming of you (But I'm dreaming of you, babe) I'll keep my cool, but I'm feigning [Chorus] I try to say goodbye and I choke (Yeah!) I try to walk away and I stumble (Oh!) Though I try to hide it, it's clear My world crumbles when you are not near Goodbye and I choke (Yeah, yeah, yeah!) I try to walk away and I stumble (Hey, yeah, yeah!) Though I try to hide it, it's clear (Sick of love) My world crumbles when you are not near (Love, your love, kisses ends) Goodbye and I choke (Goodbye and I choke, yeah) I try to walk away and I stumble Though I try to hide it, it's clear My world crumbles when you are not near [Outro] Yeah, yeah, yeah Yeah, yeah
