Tryin` To Matter — текст песни (Toby Keith)

(Toby Keith/Scotty Emerick)

I`m a lonely man with a lonely life
A full-time job and part-time wife
And the grindstone just goes on and on
You`re a lonely girl that`s a lonely wife
Gotta three bedroom and an empty life
And you`re not quite sure
Just where it all went wrong
There are lots of reasons why we should turn and walk away
But there`s a whole lot ridin` on this love so baby what`s ya say

Let`s give it one good shot
Let`s really give it all we got
We can take it nice and slow
Baby don`t you want to go back
Where we had a chance
And we danced our dance
In a world where a heart could never shatter
We might go down cryin`
But at least our love will die
Tryin` to matter, tryin` to matter

We`ve come a long way so don`t forget
let`s don`t throw our hands up yet
We`ve still got time
To change our mind
Honey let`s give it our best tonight
If we still ain`t got it right
We can always, always say goodbye
Somewhere I guess we let go, lost a little ground
One solitary heartbeat can turn this thing around

Let`s give it one good shot
Let`s really give it all we got
We can take it nice and slow
Baby don`t you want to go back
Where we had a chance
And we danced our dance
In a world where a heart could never shatter
We might go down cryin`
But at least our love will die
Tryin` to matter
We might go down cryin`
At least our love will die
Tryin` to matter, tryin` to matter
