Don McLean - If We Try lyrics
[Don McLean - If We Try lyrics]
When I see you on the street
I lose my concentration
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 thinkin' about
You day and night
And I don't know if it'll 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've got me standin' deaf and blind
'Cause I see love is just a state of mind
And who knows what it is that we might find
If we try
You're walkin' a different direction from
Most people I've met
You're givin' 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 thinkin' about
You day and night
And I don't know if it'll 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
I lose my concentration
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 thinkin' about
You day and night
And I don't know if it'll 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've got me standin' deaf and blind
'Cause I see love is just a state of mind
And who knows what it is that we might find
If we try
You're walkin' a different direction from
Most people I've met
You're givin' 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 thinkin' about
You day and night
And I don't know if it'll 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
