Macy Gray - "I Try" (song)

Σήμερα, επιλέξαμε να ξεκινήσουμε την εβδομάδα με ένα από τα πιο όμορφα soul κομμάτια της δεκαετίας του '90. Πρόκειται για το I Try, το οποίο ερμηνεύει με τη ξεχωριστή φωνή της η Macy Gray. Ένα τραγούδι που κυκλοφόρησε το 1999, αν και είχε ηχογραφηθεί δύο χρόνια νωρίτερα.

I Try

Games, changes and fears
When will they go from here
When will they stop
I believe that fate has brought us here
And we should be together babe
But we're not
I play it off, but I'm dreaming of you
And I'll keep my cool, but I'm fiendin'

[Chorus]
I try to say goodbye and I choke
Try to walk away and I stumble
Though I try to hide it, it's clear
My world crumbles when you are not here
Goodbye and I choke
I try to walk away and I stumble
Though I try to hide it, it's clear
My world crumbles when you are not here

I may appear to be free
But I'm just a prisoner of your love
And I may seem all right and smile when you leave
But my smiles are just a front
Just a front, hey
I play it off, but I'm dreaming of you
And I'll try to keep my cool, but I'm fiendin'

[Chorus]

Here is my confession
May I be your possession
Boy, I need your touch
Your love, kisses and such
With all my might I try
But this I can't deny
Deny

I play it off, but I'm dreaming of you
(but I'm dreaming of you babe)
And I'll keep my cool, but I'm fiendin'

[Chorus]
