All I ever wanted was to settle down and marry Laugh and love and hopefully have a child Have our families surround us Friendships that never die Well we can try, we can try, we can try Oh we can try, we can try, we can try There are times in life so good That looked me in the eye But I was busy So it passed me by But today I got a ticket For a long journey, Home To you and I Oh Home, to you and I I'm not good for you right now I'm good for you forever There's so much to you makes me turn the page My blind dedication, is no surprise I was right, that very first day When you rolled into the kitchen With a basket bearing chicken And a look of mischief pouring from your eyes Over drinks and songs and Dad jokes I kept touching your hand for your attention And I kissed you in my mind The sun was rolling upwards And you were going home And my head stayed drunk on your for such a long time So I moved to this country, where you reside So we can try, we can try, we can try Oh, we can try, we can try, we can try Dear Mother God in Heaven You're on hell of a woman I'll believe that it's for something till I die If you put two and two together And forget about that maths And give us three Or four, or five Well we can try, we can try, we can try
