I Try by Macy Gray

I don't know much about Macy Gray. I have a couple duets where she was on other artists albums. This might be the only one I have that's actually hers but it's a good one.

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

I'll keep my cool, but I'm fiendin.

I try to say 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 near

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 near

I may appear to be free,

But I'm just a prisoner of your love

I may seem alright and smile when you leave,

But my smiles are just a front, just a front

I play it off, but I'm dreaming of you

I'll keep my cool, but I'm fiendin

I try to say 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 near

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 near

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

I'll keep my cool, but I'm fiendin

I try to say 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 near

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 near

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 near
