O.A.R. (OF A REVOLUTION) LYRICS



"Short A Try"


i'm picking up these broken pieces again

i'm feeling like i'm lost and all i do is find you there

we've been here before

i'm never coming back again, not again

tomorrow is too soon for you my dear

i pushed you oh so far away when all i do is want you near

well i've been here before

not coming back again

and i can't sleep

because pretenders never sleep with a smile

it's hard enough to wake up after awhile

and even though i say i'm feeling fine

i'm locked up, loaded down, short a try



have i told you lately that i love you

have i told you that i hold nothing there above you

we've been around here before

we're never coming back again, not again

i love the way you walk

the way that you talk

the way you live

the way that you give me everything you promised you would

if i could, i'd be here

i can't

well i can't sleep



because pretenders never sleep with a smile

it's hard enough to wake up after awhile

and even though i say i'm feeling fine

i'm locked up, loaded down, short a try



i wish to god that i been there for you my dear

there's so much pushing me all around, i'd love to hold you near

and i don't expect you to stay

and i'm never gonna ask you why

because i'm locked up, loaded down, short a try

i'm locked up, loaded down

and i'm short a try
