Short a Try Songtext

von O.A.R.

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

Different version of song performed by OAR at Northberg

I'm locked up and I'm down
Locked away
It's been a thousand times since I seen you come my way
I've been here before but I wont' be back again, back again.
The table shattered glass around my face
I miss all those old times
What a wonderful old place
I've been here before but I won't be back again, back again
And pretenders never sleep with a smile
It's hard enough to wake up after a while.
And even though I say I'm feeling fine.
I'm locked up loaded down and short a try.

We find ourselves at the same crossroads
I've been in this place before
And I don't' want anyone to know
That I'm on my way home but I won't be back again, back again
The next time that I see you will be my little end.
I'm layin on the ground and I've lost my breath again
This time I wont' be back
I won't be back again, back again.
Cause pretenders never sleep with a smile.
It's hard enough to wake up after a while
And even though I say I'm feeling fine
I'm locked up loaded down and short a try.

And pretenders never sleep with a smile
It's hard enough to wake up after a while
And even though I say I'm feeling fine
I'm locked up loaded down and short a try.
I'm locked up loaded down and short a try
I'm locked up loaded down and short a try
I'm locked up loaded down and short a try
I'm locked up loaded down and short a try.
