Lisa Loeb - Try Lyrics

what's the difference between you and me

to me it's kind of small

to you it's like prison

what's the difference between you and me

to me it almost happens

to you it almost isn't

how did you become so sure



your girlfriend never smiles

and no one ever calls

you begin to wonder if they were your friends at all

you frown

you take a look around

you shout

this will never get better



but the doubt that you grow

when you feel desprouted

turning your field into a deeper valley



Chorus

you'd find

(I know you'll find)

the mountains aren't so high

(the mountains aren't so high)

if you'd only try

(OooOooOooh)



to do better



it's 9:33 and the traffic, the stoplight

somebody hits you

nothing ever goes right

and the gridlock

nothing ever goes right



and it's just a little scratch

not a permanent scar

it's just a tiny dent

you don't need a new car

it's just a little mess

your dreams aren't shattered

you climb up

while I hold the ladder

Chorus



but how many times I've tried

how many time I've missed and I've tried

how many times I've tried

how many time I've missed and I've tried



when everything's so difficult

I feel so alone

but I find a better view

on the other side of the window



so that's the difference between you and me

what if you believe that the grass could grow

up through the snow

it's possible

Chorus

to do better than get by

Chorus

to do better

Chorus

to do better than get by
