Lyric If We Try

(Don McLean)

When I see you on the street
I lose my concentration
And just the thought that we might meet
Creates anticipation
Won t you look my way once before you go
And my eyes will say what you ought to know
Well, I ve been thinking about you day and night
And I don t know if it will work out right
But somehow I think that it just might
If we try

Faces come and faces go in circular rotation
But something yearns within to grow
Beyond infatuation
Won t you look my way once before you go
And my eyes will say what you ought to know
Well, you got me standing deaf and blind
Cause I see love as just a state of mind
And who knows what it is that we might find
If we try

You re walking a different direction
From most people I ve met
You re giving me signs of affection
I don t usually get
I don t want you to pledge your future
The future s not yours to give
Just stand there a little longer
And let me watch while you live

cause When I see you on the street
I lose my concentration
And just the thought that we might meet
Creates anticipation
Won t you look my way once before you go
And my eyes will say what you ought to know
Well, I ve been thinking about you day and night
And I don t know if it will work out right
But somehow I think that it just might
If we try
somehow I think that it just might
If we try
Yes,somehow I think that it just might
If we try
