From the recording I Try (COVID Blues)
One of the songs I wrote during 2020 lockdown!
Lyrics
Hot, endless summer days
Steamy summer nights
How I'd love to getaway
No chance of that insight
I try
Oh lord I try
Days keep moving slowly by
The news keeps me wondrin' why
I try
Don't venture out much
Beyond these walls
That makes me want to shout
Far too many pitfalls
To navigate around
I try
Oh lord I try
Days keep moving slowly by
The news keeps me wondrin' why
I try
Seems like it's been years
We've all had to switch gears
And try
In thick mud, I feel stuck
Gotta keep my spirits up
I try
Theories of conspiracy
Cluttering my mind
Adding to the misery
The truth is hard to find
II try
Oh lord I try
Days keep moving slowly by
The news keeps me wondrin' why
I try
Hot endless summer days
Hold up in my home
Oh, I know that patience pays
Rewards of its own
I try
Oh lord I try
With all that's left in me
I won't let it get the best of me
I try
