First Try - Lyrics by Tracy Chapman


Lyrics

can't run fast enough
can't hide i can't fly
i'm struggling with the limits of this ordinary life

i'm just a
just a
just a first try


can't hear what you say
can't see by the light
i'm struggling with the limits of this ordinary life


i'm just a
just a
just a first try


can't say what i mean
can't love from the heart
can't trust in the mercy and the goodness in the world
can't learn to accept that it's alright
to struggle with the limits of this ordinary life


can't be
just a
just a first try
can't be
just a
just a first try
just a
just a
just a first try
