I Can Try

A swift change in the weather calls for new clothes to be torn
Your man stakes me out for another round
And so I'm now on the city streets where the heart sets for repeat
Is there something out here that is worth my while?

I can try
To leave behind the wishful and the wild
The ivory skyline of your smile
I can walk enough in time
And devise to play it in my mind

I can try
There's another way of thinking for us to say
Another way of knowing path to take
I can try and find their heart
And I can find a way to make it start

Branches reach my ripple basin
Tear in to my skies
Oh, colors change from white to black again

I can try
Somewhere in the day there's none to keep
Somewhere in the night there's a way to sleep
I can try to wake at night
And start to do it sometime soon

I can try
To leave behind the wishful and the wild
The ivory skyline of your smile
I can walk enough in time
And devise to play it in my mind

I can try
There's another way of thinking for us to say
Another way of knowing path to take
I can try and find a heart
And I can find a way to make it start

A swift change and the winter stop
Wonder on...
