Tryin' To Matter

I'm a lonely man with a lonely life
I got full-time job and a part-time wife
And the grindstone
Just goes on and onYou're a lonely girl, that's a lonely wife
We gotta three bedroom and an empty life
And you're not quite sure
Or just where it all went wrongThere's lots of reasons why
We should turn and walk away
There's a whole lot ridin' on this love
So baby what's ya sayLet's give it one good shot
Let's really give it all we got
We can take it nice and slow
Baby, don't you want to go back
Where we had a chance
And where we danced our dance
In a world where a heart could never shatter
Yeah, we might go down cryin'
But at least our love will die
Tryin' to matter, tryin' to matterAnd I've come a long way so don't forget
Let's don't throw our hands up yet
We've still got time
To change our mindHoney, let's give it our best tonight
If we still ain't got it right
We can always
Always say goodbyeSomewhere I guess we let go
And lost a little ground
One solitary heartbeat
Can turn this thing aroundLet's give it one good shot
Let's really give it all we got
We can take it nice and slow
Baby, don't you want to go back
Where we had a chance
And where we danced our dance
In a world where a heart could never shatter
Yeah, we might go down cryin'
But at least our love will die
Tryin' to matterWe might go down cryin'
At least our love will die
Tryin' to matter, tryin' to matter
