Every window in my hometown is empty
And I really don't know why
And the house you used to live in
Is cold and fallen down, yeah
And I am tired and I'm weary
And Lord, those gray skies bring me down
And I came home for just one reason
To find myself in this quiet town, yeah
And I keep thinkin'
Oh, I'm thinkin' time's been my teacher
I don't want to leave you
So please give me one more try
I'm tired and I'm weary but I want you near me
So please give me one more try
Oh, just give me one more try
One more try
I don't know where to go for one more try
All the days we spent together doing nothin'
It all so seems so long ago
I thought the world turned around without me, baby
But I just didn't know
That I was wrong to go and leave you
To go and leave your world behind
But now time has been my teacher
And now I finally found
I'm thinkin' time's been my teacher
I don't want to leave you
So please give me one more try
I'm tired and I'm weary but I want you near me
So please give me one more try
Just give me one more try
One more try
Oh, I don't know what to do
Time's been my teacher
I don't want to leave you
So please give me one more try
I'm tired and I'm weary but I want you near me
So please give me one more try
Time's been my teacher
I don't want to leave you
So please give me one more try
I'm tired and I'm weary but I want you near me
Please give me one more try
Time's been my teacher
I don't want to leave you
So please give me one more try
Tired and I'm weary but I want you near me
Please give me one more try
Time's been my teacher
I don't want to leave you
So please give me one more try
