When You Try So Hard
(Lyrics)
-
When you try so hard
And no answers come
with no regard
and so much is left undone
-
you travel so far
just wanna go home
they know you're the star
but you're left alone
-
played by the rules
nobody's fool
I never knew
it would be this hard
-
all the best schools
the best books to choose
I never knew
I would work so hard
-
I just wanna job
live in a nice house
but I work like a dog
and I don't wanna grouse
-
you can play a fair game
live by the rules
but it's just not the same
when after all you can loose
-
played by the rules
nobody's fool
I never knew
it would be this hard
-
all the best schools
the best books to choose
I never knew
I would work so hard
-
so where do I go
what do I do
just wanna be with you
-
so where do I go
what do I do
just wanna be with you
just wanna be with you
-
I just wanna be with you
-
